Also the syntax error ", that" is a typical German error. In German, you must
have a "grammatical comma" between the principal and the subordinate
propositions. In other languages, it's usually illegal.
It should be :
Please select a template that matches the CSV file
(no comma)
Can some netive English speaker confirm (or infirm) what I'm saying ? I do not
feel authorized to give English grammar lessons ;-).
I'm sure that if you search for ", that" in the templates, one can find a half
zillion of them :
grep -r ", that" kde-i18n/templates/
Note : It seems to me that you can have commas in English in certain cases :
A lion is a mammal that is very dangerous
(no comma)
I have entered its cage, which was very dangerous
(a comma)
- --
Military justice is to justice
what military music is to music
- -- Groucho Marx
