Describe the bug While translating the 5th Frisian scenario, the spellchecker in my translation program marked some words in the original as incorrect because of British spelling.

To reproduce Do a spellcheck on the fri05 original texts with US English?

Expected behavior Consistent usage of dialects

Version:

  • Widelands Version: 76155713d2f1651a815f3454b34fe1e09fca2677

Additional context I don't care much as I prefer British anyway, :) but the default locale is officially en_US, and we have separate en_GB "translations". But that's not actually indicated anywhere in the file, so we can just use it as it is, and if somebody wants, they can change the spelling in the en_US.po… ;)

Although I also prefer British English myself, our policy is to use US English for the default locale, so British-specific spellings should be changed in the source.
