Public bug reported:

I'm almost embarrassed to bother you with this - it's such a small issue
- but still, I guess we need to know about everything big or small...

I have 3 DNS servers set up in my network connection, and when I go to
connection information it shows me the Primary, Secondary and Ternary
DNS ips. I'm sorry to be pedantic, but “Ternary” means “having three
parts”. Operators in C# can be unary, binary or ternary – they take one,
two or three operands. “Tertiary” means “third in order”. On this basis,
it should be  Primary, Secondary and Tertiary (not Ternary) DNS. If you
would like to argue that it's an operand with 3 parts, then it should be
Unary, Binary and Ternary DNS, however, the DNS servers are hit in order
so I think P/S/T is correct.
