Description David Dempster 2008-07-19 09:50:32 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.98)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Parley doesn't work for me at all, but there is one text-based error that could be easily fixed.

Under Grammar Properties (and probably elsewhere too), Parley mentions "male", "female" and "neutral".  People and other organisms are male and female, and various things can be neutral; but, when we speak of grammatical gender, words are "masculine", "feminine" or "neuter".

Thanks.  That looks like you fixed it, though I'll have to check it when next it is released.

Javier, your patch solves the problem partly, please apply.
Still todo: when new documents are created, there are user visible strings as 
well. Avgoustinos fixed some of these, please apply as well.
I'll do a grep for it unless someone beats me to it.
Thanks.
