Re: [COLLECTION THREAD] Various Text and Translation Errors

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Cat & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to Work, Parenthood, Vampires, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, Laundry Day Stuff, Toddler Stuff, Fitness Stuff, Bowling Night Stuff, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Backyard Stuff, Kids Room Stuff, Romantic Garden Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Spooky Stuff, Cool Kitchen Stuff, Perfect Patio Stuff, Luxury Party Stuff, Holiday Celebration Pack, Awesome Hats, Life of the Party Digital Content, Digital Soundtrack, Up All Night
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Open up the list of books to order and look at the piano books. Piano Vol Book 3 has a typo in the title. The title reads: PIANO VOL 3: CONCERTOS, MINUTES, AND SONATAS Unless this is a purposeful joke, MINUTES should be MINUETS. A minuet is a Baroque and Classical-period dance of medium-slow speed in a triple meter. Composers such as Haydn and Mozart, and even Beethoven used them in their Sonatas and Symphonies, and Concertos. They were also composed in the Baroque by Bach, Handel Couperin, and others during that period.
What happens when the bug occurs? Nothing other than I noticed the typographical error in the book title. It's not a game breaking error, but is one that should be fixed at some point.
What do you expect to see? The title to be spelled correctly.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

    This news item about Triple Boost Week that pops up when launching the game has an incorrect use of "less." It should be "fewer" in this case, because trips are countable.

    Hi @unseenlarks

    that's more a issue of a wrong notification. Did he gain the right skill ?

    New thread might be better :D

    hey. actually, they acquired the wrong skill, because the Sim they were learning from... was playing guitar. XD

    so, at first, i thought of the displayed text as not applying to the object/happening. so thanks! good catch... i'll make a new thread then, since it's a wrong notification... followed by a wrong result. XD

    To whoever posted about the Tea Magic Brewer displaying text about coffee when you're upgrading it:

    You posted this February 2018 and I literally noticed it this week! Definitely still a thing
