SpellingMistakes

This page is meant to be a list of spelling mistakes in campaigns and other translatable texts in the en_US development version of the game.

Note: The house style of Wesnoth uses a good many words and constructions that are archaic, poetic, or dialectal. If you speak modern English as a second language you may incorrectly read these as errors. Please see NotSpellingMistakes for a list of things you will encounter that may look like spelling or usage errors but are not. Note that the mainline campaigns are now using correct typography, including sexed quotes and en and em dashes. These will appear as three byte sequences if you are not using a viewer that supports UTF-8.

Original text: (..) Far to the west in the the Great Ocean is a huge archipelago called (..)
Proposed replacement: (..) Far to the west in the Great Ocean there is a huge archipelago called (..)

• data/core/help.cfg:317 I think that period should be moved.

Original text: (..). (In general this is configurable but in campaigns it is almost always one gold per village.) Thus (..)

Other (unit descriptions, ...)

• The lieutenant's description says "Trained at swords and crossbows..." which is rather poor grammar. Might "Trained in swords and crossbows..." be better?
