Title:
Grammar: ‘Even more earlier’ sounds redundant
Status in Document Viewer application for Ubuntu devices:
New
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
Triaged
Bug description:
I’ve found this string while translating:
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu-docviewer-
app/trunk/+pots/com.ubuntu.docviewer/es/30/+translate
It says: “Even more earlier...” The “more” part is redundant when you
use a comparative [1], “earlier” in this case.
You have two options: either you use “Even more early” or “Even
earlier”.
