Hi,
This is from Fundamentals manual:
https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/applications/fundamentals/install.html
Native speaker opinion needed.
When I write or edit docs, my primary thought is that the intent be
clear to a non-native speaker, even before I worry about absolutely
correct grammar, word usage, or US vs. UK style. (I do agree with the
change suggest here.) Corrections of this sort are absolutely
welcome, but simply getting docs written and kept updated should take
priority.
Thanks in advance for your comments (the original reporter is not in

Best regards,
Yuri
