Description: In the Writer AutoCorrect Replace in German (Germany) language we have an old spelling from the Word "dass". Please delete it in the next build. Replace: dßs With: daß "daß" is no longer correct. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a LibreOffice Dokument 2. Type the Word "dßa" 3. The Program replace the Word in "daß" Actual Results: "daß" Expected Results: nothing or "dass" Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: From a technical point of view, the replacement works perfectly. The word to which the replacement is made is no longer written with "ß" but with "ss".
I can confirm: Since German spelling reform in 1996 "daß" is a spelling mistake. "daß" has to be replaced by "dass".
LO 6.4.6.2 (x64) replaces "daß" by "dass".
The relevant code is at: https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/extras/source/autocorr/lang/de/DocumentList.xml?r=79ecfae0#69 A change should be simple. However, as someone who doesn't speak German at all, I think it should not be deleted, but changed to be autocorrecting to "dass" instead. @Julien: Any insight? Or do you know the proper contact person for German-specific issues?
Eike: taking a look at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Language_Teams, I didn't see any specific German contact for language team. Thought you might have some idea here even if it doesn't concern Calc.
The wiki page says the contact is the German discuss list.
(In reply to Eike Rathke from comment #5) > The wiki page says the contact is the German discuss list. Thank you Eike for your feedback. Jürgen: I let you send an email to the list forum since I don't speak German.
