Also, when you install a skin on the Mac version (perhaps the PC version too), the message says 'Installation successfull'. (Successful is spelled with only a single l.)
 
Seeing your post, I just had a look through the XML myself....

There are a lot of grammar errors and a few spelling mistakes too. One that appears a lot is the phrase "stop to" e.g. "stop to record" instead of "stop recording".

I've tweaked mine to correct other things such as "colour" (UK spelling) instead of "color" too, but I suspect it's overwritten for each update, as the ear/hear mistake was there again, after I reported it and it was changed recently.
 
Perhaps they can have someone from their North American location review the strings.
 
Now who are you "gonna" find that can spell proper English from that part of the world... lol
 
I'd do it... I have written 100+ product manuals and authored a few books.
 
But can you spell "Colour" ?? LOL

Is Virtual DJ an American program or a European program, what is the accepted "international spelling".

In the wider view its not really important ....... but just interested in how these grammatical decisions are made.

Peace
 
For your info:

If you make a renamed edited copy of any language XML, it appears as a choice in config and you can select that rather than the default/bad one.
