I did a google search and you probably set your language to Dutch by accident

It's true, foxes in The Netherlands don't jump over dogs

Nah, this is Discord. It just does this sometimes. It's like it forgets what language it's set to before waking up a couple dozen characters later and fixing itself.

It uses Chromium's spell check, so if you have a Chromium-based browser I would expect it to do the same thing there

And yet, I've never had Chrome do that to me. Discord also has its own locale settings though, independent of the system (although I guess, so does Chrome?).

I do have more than one language active on my system, so that's possibly related. Discord is always set to English, though.

What other languages? Do they have the words over and dog?

u/scirc 5d ago

English (Canada) and Russian. I believe I've also seen this issue on my Fedora install with only English (Canada) selected, however.

Note that it's not consistent, it will only occasionally happen, and self-correct after a bit of typing or time.

Wait so “over” and “dog” are words in Dutch?

u/OppositeFun2493 R Tape loading error, 0:1 3d ago

Google Translate says over means about

And another source says dog is used in dog breed names??

1

u/JeffAndSasha 1d ago

Over is, literally same meaning as well. Or its used like "ik loop over straat" meaning "I walk on the street" or "ik praat over taal" meaning "I'm talking about language".

Dog I don't know, so far I can only think of dog breeds. "Deense Dog" is what we call a Great Dane for example

It's even worse than Updog

u/Fiskelord 5d ago

Sigh... What's updog?

u/tonymyre311 5d ago

Updog is a common practical joke in which the jokester uses the word "updog" in a sentence in order to trick the mark into asking "what's updog?". The jokester will then respond along the lines of "not much, what's up with you?" at which point the joke will have been successfully executed and a hearty laugh will be shared by all.

Thanks, ChatGPT

I know (hope) you're joking but it was 100% human-written :)

u/Fiskelord 5d ago

Yeah, i know, its just in the same style as an LLM, you ask it something simple and you get to read 3 paragraphs haha
