[Bug 1067366] Re: Ubiquity in Norwegian Bokmål has egregious misspelling

 

We have standards, and we try to make the translations consistent. Even
though "viss" is correct spelling, it is still not widely accepted.
Please use "hvis" or "om".

Title:
  Ubiquity in Norwegian Bokmål has egregious misspelling

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  In the slideshow, the english "if" is translated to Norwegian as
  "viss". This is how a 6-year old or slightly dyslectic person writes
  "if" in Norwegian. Proper Norwegian is "hvis".

  This is egregious, because it makes Ubuntu look like it is a kludge-
  job, which it is not.
