From: Operating system: NA PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:grammar error Description: ------------ I understand that, despite the OFFICIAL ISO standard in this regard, there is a great debate regarding the correct pronunciation of the acronym, "SQL". While some vendors prefer to pronounce it, "see kwel", MySQL OFFICIALLY pronounces it "ess cue el" and all documentation for MySQL should reflect that. Therefore, the phrase, "A SQL statement..." is poor grammar. It should read, "An SQL statement..." and so forth. Frankly, the ISO officially pronounces it the same way that MySQL does and so the mispronunciation, "see kwel", is an indication of an individual who is uninformed regardless of their position in the industry. We programmers do, after all, live or die by our ability to adapt to the current standards. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51978&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51978&r=mysqlcfg
