Description Enji Cooper freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-03-12 05:37:03 UTC
"n'th" is a valid alternative for "nth": https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nth . I don't believe that igor should be flagging this as a typo.
Comment 1 Warren Block freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-03-17 20:06:40 UTC
"Th" is flagged as a spelling error because it is a misspelling found in FreeBSD documents.  I would say the best way to write that is Nth, distinguishing the N from the rest of it.  I'm hesitant to remove it from the list of misspelled words because a bare "th" is almost always a spelling error.  A good argument could be made for removing both it and "fr" on the basis that they are country codes.

In this case, I would still prefer the "Nth" form.

^Triage: return to pool.  Assignee's commit bit was returned for safekeeping
several years ago.

Bugmeister note: to anyone working on this PR, it's probably fair to reset the
maintainer (last action 8 years ago).

I will close this.
igor stopped development time ago. Any change is unlikely to happen.
Please feel free to reopen if you think otherwise.
