整个菜单是完全充满错误和...
Jokes aside, from which to what language is this supposed to be about?

 

A lot of times, German to English.

 

I am a female character yet am called "Brother"



There is an opening square bracket before my name:

 

Quest instruction for Stolen Gems 4/7 has a typo. It should read "Go to Andrakasch and talk to Rakorus..."


Object name capitalized incorrectly. It should be "Blowgun Dart". I believe this is for the quest "The Tribes of Lor'Tac 1/6" in Frog River Delta.


Twilight Downs. Champion fleshwalker thingies still have German names.

 

@ silverseas - Gabash's line also has a typo: "he's been interest"... should be "interested".

When you talk to Thabo for a Blackborg portal, he says "Varholm" at the end of his speech bubble.

 

Here is a problem in the forum. If this is the wrong thread for this then just delete post

Roshan Shamoon – Talk to Roshan and help first her repairing the broken barricades. Then you will need to protect her from successive waves of monsters. Once you have successfully completed this and defeated all the monsters in the nearby area, head north and talk to Ruthina Flint.

Suggest correct translation

Roshan Shamoon – Talk to Roshan and first help her repair the broken barricades. After that you will need to protect her from successive waves of monsters. Once you have successfully completed this and defeated all the monsters in the nearby area, head north and talk to Ruthina Flint.

 

Even though I'm not a native English speaker, I'm quite sure it should say "spent" not "spend".
(Glyph removal dialogue at the blacksmith, R164)

 

A small one regarding the oaths in the recent Invasion event: it says "until his falls dead at your side" in all of them. I searched the DSO Wiki, and the previous Attack/Invasion events' oaths had correct texts. How did they mess this up, then xD ?

 

From the event. I am playing a female character, yet am called a "prince".



Also, the filename is showing when you click but don't have the required items to open the larger fieldstones or trees:

 

This is not a dialogue, but a talk between 3 persons, basically.
In those sentences printed in Italic, Ruthina is addressing prince Aldred who is standing behind her and can't see (because he blinded himself), yet might have been eager to fight the dragon commander himself.

 

Hmm.. well it wasn't clear to me. Maybe add verbiage to clarify that such as [To Prince Aldred] "Raise your shield!" or put it in a different color or give it a different background color.

Looking at it the last one, and knowing that there are three people involved, there is more that appears to be addressing Prince Aldred that isn't in italics.

 

That's true... All the middle part as far as "I dare not leave you" should be in italics.

 

I have found several context/translation errors/issues.

This calls it a "Seal Pillar"



Yet when you search it, it calls it a Carved Pillar. I believe Carved is correct. Unless we are dealing with Marine Mammals.



We are apparently missing a verb in the second sentence:



I'm not sure what Oleif did with his Furnace. Clearly it wasn't good as he didn't survive it. However, I am curious...



This text is missing the umlaut over the o.. ie Forge vs Förge:



I don't think they mean pancakes...therefore I think the R and the T have been transposed a bit:



Minor issue. However in US English (and I assume British English), random words aren't capitalized. The first "Fine" should be lowercase. Second one is negotiable.



As for this one, I'm not sure what the right answer is. The rock DSO opted to use is a brown/black coal type substance. Yet somehow it becomes white. Perhaps it should become ebony as the "jet" used for some jewelry?





Real Lignite:



Wiki article: http://i1380.photobucket.com/albums/ah196/Dragonnns/Lignite-coal_zpscap1wkhv.jpg

This one has two issues:
- Iron is misspelled as Irone
- New-minted should be newly-minted
- Personally, I'd add a ... after "anvil!" so that the "As do they" ties in to the same sentence and you better understand what is to happen to those dratted gnomes.



It should be "Thanks FOR your help" not "Thanks TO your help" (note that it should all be lowercase). It should also be two sentences: "Thanks for your help. The mine is that much safer."



All I have so far.

 

I think they meant "Because of / due to your help, the mine is that much safer", not "I want to thank you for your help".
So maybe the comma could be omitted, but "Thanks to your help the mine is safer [now]" seems correct to me.

 

I agree... I'll let those more interested in grammar than me figure out if the comma belongs, but there is nothing wrong with the wording.

 

US English is not a language.

Lignite is not always black or brown ... its color is depending of the composition.
We don't know what elements are present in Duria ... maybe their periodic table is different then ours.
Besides ... it says that piece has been processed and they consider it as a gem.

Like Armando said ... there is nothing wrong with that sentence.

 

Point taken since this is a semantics thread.

 

Here in the U.S. we speak 'merican. Which does not mean to say that folks speaking 'merican in one part of the country can understand folks speaking 'merican in another part of the country. There is no official language in the U.S. but by law all government publications also have to be printed in Spanish (which is not the same Spanish used in Spain.)

Way back when I was a freshman at collage I had to take a couple of writing classes. The textbook used a guide to proper composition was from some University at some place called Oxford. So, yeah, I guess when it comes to formal writing we still defer to the King's English

Luck be with ye,

Regarding the Alexander Campbell one, Dragonnns, that second sentence ("The sacred ritual grounds of the Dragonknights, of all places for the undead to sully.") is fine, especially since the rest of his reply give it appropriate context... though maybe it could have been worded better (i.e. by adding an exclamation mark at the end at least). It's an exclamation, rather than a statement. Should be understood as: "Of all places, the undead sullied the Dragonknights' sacred ritual grounds!", but he practically said that in the first sentence, so he went like: "They desecrated our ritual grounds! Of all places!".

MikeyMetro... you went to "collage" ? Hmm, nice xD. Also, "in", not "at" college .

I've been meaning to post some screens from the achievements' text, but somehow my Paint messed them up and I ended up deleting them out of no patience to redo them all. Those texts are pretty flawed too, if anyone wants to dig in. I might at a later date, IDK.
