Sim City Build It Errors
There are two errors, which I have reported through Live Chat and elsewhere.
The inhabitants pop up comments include a mis-spelling of "hopscotch". It reads as hopskotch. No such spelling exists with a "k".
Secondly, the colloquial English expression, "I can't see the wood for the trees" is corrupted into something that makes no sense at all to an English speaking person. "I can see the forest for the trees" is nonsense.
These are sloppy mistakes and don't contribute to raising standards of clear communication and literacy.
Please advise.

"Can't see the forest for the trees" is perfectly fine:
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/can%27t+see+the+forest+for+the+trees
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/see_the_forest_for_the_trees
I made the assumption that "CAN" replaced "CAN'T" intentionally, as a play on the original expression, because if I remember right the saying pops up when there's a nearby park.
If the misspelling of hopscotch weighs too heavily on your soul, submit a bug report to EA. http://answers.ea.com/t5/SimCity-BuildIt-Support/INFO-How-to-reach-support-for-SimCity-BuildIt/td-p/4280789/jump-to/first-unread-message
I suggest that because this is a user forum, so you're unlikely to get a response from them here. 🙂
