 6.  Thanks for the review. I’ve corrected the typographic issues that were affecting
     the glossary and style guides: localeLocale Locale = language version, often a
     combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish
     as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/)-
     specific quotation marks (German „…“, Spanish/Italian «…», Portuguese “…”), as
     well as the non-breaking spaces inside French guillemets and before : ; ! ? throughout.
     German consistently uses the informal “du” form. The updated translations have
     been re-imported.
 7.  Could you please take another look? I’m happy to fix anything else you spot. Thank
     you very much! 🙂

 10. I have checked more of the Dutch translations, which were very bad. Over 200 changes
     requested, only glossary words checked until now. Did not check the whole translation
     for it. So you need to revise your whole Dutch translation again.

     Team nicht überprüft, aber ich habe sie mir kurz angesehen.
 14. Dabei ist mir aufgefallen, dass noch einige Fehler enthalten sind und manche Übersetzungen
     noch nicht den Richtlinien des deutschen Polyglots-Teams entsprechen.

     informelle Anrede (**default**, du).

      Danke für die Freigabe und die Hinweise! Ich habe Style Guide

     even though I had a quick pass combined with some automated checks. That said,
     there are no major blocking technical issues.
 27. A few things to keep in mind (and fix, whenever possible):
 28.  * The plural form for “brand kit” isn’t there and still reads “kit de marca” 
        in both singular and plural.

        saving as a dynamic template, but one is fully translated while the other left
        the menu paths in English (“File → Save as Dynamic Template”, “Automation →
        Images → Featured Images”).
      * Run the translation file against our glossary one more time. Strings such as“
        gradient”, “online”, and “offline” require another pass.
      * Recruit a native speaker to work as a PTE alongside. For reference, [here’s how our team handles author PTE requests](https://br.wordpress.org/team/how-the-wordpress-brazilian-community-handles-pte-requests-from-authors/).
