No, any native speaker of English would say "for column %d". Putting "failed" at the end seems a bit awkward as well, though I can't offhand see a better phrasing. "picksplit method failed for ..." is *not* better; it implies there is only one picksplit method for everything, whereas the point of the message is that the one associated with this column failed. > And later in the file there is this, which might have the same problem: > elog(LOG, "PickSplit method of %d columns of index '%s' doesn't support > secondary split", > attno + 1, RelationGetRelationName(r)); Should be "for column %d" also, AFAICS, plus '' -> "" and lowercase "PickSplit" ... but this message isn't translatable anyway as an elog(). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
