French interface bug

Hello,

 


In France we are used to finding spelling mistakes here and there in the Archicad interface, and this, for years. What surprises me is to see that despite the updates, new spelling mistakes, bad translations and even transcription errors persist!

Circled in red it would be appropriate to write "COLLER" (paste) instead of "COPIER" (copy).

I am also thinking about the subject of patches which have several names in the French version of Archicad depending on the windows (even in the latest version of Archicad)

Which Archicad version is this?

Loving Archicad since 1995 - Find Archicad Tips at x.com/laszlonagy
AMD Ryzen9 5900X CPU, 64 GB RAM 3600 MHz, Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB, 500 GB NVMe SSD
2x28" (2560x1440), Windows 10 PRO ENG, Ac20-Ac28

All french 28 from 3001 to 28.0.2 Hotfix.

 

Since this is a minor but nevertheless recurring issue in the French versions, I have not yet applied the latest update. Do you think that the latest hotfix could include this type of modification?
