Public bug reported:
Because I don't see any of these errors in the GNOME desktop shipped in
Debian and Fedora, I'm reporting it here to Ubuntu. All of them can be
found in the GNOME Settings app.
This is about the Brazilian Portuguese translation.
1. Incorrect pluralization in the "Add user" dialog.
In the Password section, the first radio button label starts with "Os
usuário definem a senha...", but it should be "Os usuários definem a senha
(...)".
2. Typos and inaccurate translations in Privacy and Security
The first item in that page, "Connectivity", was translated as "Ligações";
the correct term is "Conectividade". "Ligações" translates to "Connections".
Still in "Connectivity", its description says "Detetar problemas de ligação"
when the correct phrase is "Detectar problemas de conectividade" or even
"Detectar problemas de conexão".
Navigate to the second item there, "Lock Screen", and in the page that
opens, notice that most options use "tela" as translation for "screen"; but the
last one calls it "ecrã", which is only correct for Portuguese (Portugal), but
my display language is set to Portuguese (Brazil).
Go back to the Privacy and Security section, then navigate to "Device
Security" in the Devices subsection. In the page that opens, click on the first
interactive card that reports the general safety of your device; it will open a
pop-up with more details. Here it says that my hardware has a good level of
protection, and indicates it by showing a green shield icon followed by a
description. The description has a typo in "(...) Seu harware tem proteção
contra (...)". "Harware" should be "Hardware".
