UK English

They should make a translation so it says colour and stuff. What do you say ?  yikes   neutral


There are 10 types of people in this world: Those who understand trinary, those who don't, and those who think this is the same old signature.

Re: UK English

Yes, I think the Brits will recognize, er - recognise - the words just fine. They certainly realize --or realise, rather? that Scratch (or is it Zcratch?) comes from Bozton. ;] Actually, it is worth doing, if anyone wants to make those small changes. I'm a big believer in making users as comfortable in any given environment as they can be. That helps make the computer fade into the background of a user's mind so they can focus on whatever is the task at hand.

Re: UK English

Australia too, I would imagine. Are the spellings much the same as UK down under? I suppose the first step in the effort is to identify how many distinct variants are being addressed. Hmm... Which brings South Africa to mind.

Note to self: Wikipedia this, find out how many English variants there are, and hunt down instructions on submitting them to the Scratch team. ;]

Has anyone begun work on this already?

Re: UK English

I agree! I find it quite frustrating that we have been left out, although I suppose the changes would only be minor.

Re: UK English

Of what?
Hmm... This is a good idea, but there are not many changes.
The only changes (or is it changez?) are:
Color is spelled Colour.
US is UK
us is still us for the upper
