Hello po4a developers,
while updating the po4a translation I noticed the following potential
improvements:
po4a:122
========
Current:
"The provided directory must contain a set of PO files, each named F<XX.po>
"
"with C<XX> the ISO 639-1 of the language used in this file. The directory
"
Suggested improvement:
"The provided directory must contain a set of PO files, each named F<XX.po>
"
"with C<XX> the ISO 639-1 code of the language used in this file (two or more
letters). The directory "
Rationale:
e.g. pt_BR, or sr_Cyrl, or zh_CHS, or zh_Hant
doc/po4a.7.pod:79
=================
Current:
"Then, the I<manual editing> reported depicts the action of the translators,
"
"that modify the PO files to provide translations to every original string "
"and paragraph. "
Suggested improvement:
"Then, the I<manual editing> block depicts the action of the translators,
"
"that modify the PO files to provide translations to every original string "
"and paragraph. "
Rationale:
The paragraph is referring to the graphics which contains various
blocks with actions. Also in "manual editing" nothing is reported.

==================
Current:
"You can also set the insertion I<mode> to the value C<before>, with a
"
"similar semantic: combining C<mode=before> with an C<endboundary> will
put "
"the addendum just B<after> the matched boundary, that the last potential
"
"boundary line before the C<position>. Combining C<mode=before> with an
"
"C<beginboundary> will put the addendum just B<before> the matched
boundary, "
"that the last potential boundary line before the C<position>."
Suggested improvement:
"You can also set the insertion I<mode> to the value C<before>, with a
"
"similar semantic: combining C<mode=before> with an C<endboundary> will
put "
"the addendum just B<after> the matched boundary, that is the last potential
"
~~
"boundary line before the C<position>. Combining C<mode=before> with an
"
"C<beginboundary> will put the addendum just B<before> the matched
boundary, "
"that is the last potential boundary line before the C<position>."
~~
Rationale:
Missing verb in the clause after the comma started with "that".
Alternatively (if the meaning remains the same?) In both cases the
word "that" could be deleted.
