Minor CVA GUI bug

[Guest]

[panic]

G'day,

When CVA is doing a db update, the status line says "Updation in progress". AFAIK, updation isn't a real word.

It should say

"Update in progress"

or

"Updating ..."

Ewen :-)

Maybe it it's a real word?

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/updation

Quote from Wiktionary:

This word is mainly used in some Asian countries instead of updating.

Maybe CVA is made in China?

DOH! I thought I had a pretty good vocabulary, but I've NEVER heard of this word.

Ewen :-)

P.S. I still think the other wording is more understandable.

Don't forget that the traditional book dictionary and internet dictionary can be worlds apart.  How reliable is the internet?  LOL

[MorphOS REBOL]

Well, UPDATION is obviously a mislead mixture of the frisian/anglosaxon prefix "up" and the latin verb "dare", that, if being used in nominal style, would have sounded "datio". (which obviously means something like "donation")

The ending "n" is just a relict of the root from the latin genitive that would have sounded (2000 years ago):
"dation-is".

Whoever invented that crap, it was more than influential on not just the English, but also the German language.

Just think of engl. imagination, germ. Imagination, and then: lat. imaginatio (genitive: imagination-is).

LOL

Now having a beer

[Ragwing]

You'll certainly need a beer after all this nonunderstandable text.
Does it confirm that 'updation' is a real word?

[MorphOS REBOL]

It may be a real word now, still it's a rather new word. And ugly as hell. 

I wonder what our world's common language will sound like in the year 2525. 
This language will be called ZAGA 'n EVNS, of course.   

Quote Ragwing:

YUL ZATNLY NIT A BIA FTALLTIS NONANASTENTBL TXT.

 

Somewhat glad to not be alive then and to have to hear that. 

Now playing: When I'm dead and gone.

Hi Ewen,
Just to make sure our English doesn't confuse rest of the world

'Updation' is now 'Update' in last release.

Thanks
