I had a look through the strings list and here's a list of the changes I
would suggest for the English strings.
#: ../data/glade/account_modification_window.glade.h:19
Current:
"If checked, Gajim will send keep-alive packets so it prevents
connection timeout which results in disconnection"
Suggestion:
"If checked, Gajim will send keep-alive packets to prevent connection
timeouts which result in disconnection"
#: ../data/glade/accounts_window.glade.h:4
Current:
"If you have 2 or more accounts and it is checked, Gajim will list all
contacts as if you had one account"
Suggestion:
"If you have 2 or more accounts and this is checked, Gajim will list all
contacts as if you had one account"
#: ../data/glade/add_new_contact_window.glade.h:5
Current:
"You have to register to this transport\n
to be able to add a contact from this\n
protocol. Click on register button to\n
proceed."
Suggestion:
"You have to register with this transport\n
to be able to add a contact from this\n
protocol. Click the register button to\n
proceed."
#: ../data/glade/advanced_configuration_window.glade.h:2
Current:
"<b>NOTE:</b> You should restart gajim for some setting to take effect"
Suggestion:
"<b>NOTE:</b> You should restart gajim for some settings to take effect"
#: ../data/glade/advanced_menuitem_menu.glade.h:3
Current:
"Sends a message to currently connected users to this server"
Suggestion:
"Sends a message to users currently connected to this server"
#: ../data/glade/advanced_notifications_window.glade.h:18

Contact Connected\n
Contact Disconnected\n
Contact Change Status\n
Group Chat Message Highlight\n
Group Chat Message Received\n
File Transfert Resquest\n
File Transfert Started\n
File Transfert Finished"
Suggestion:
Is 'Transfer' supposed to have a 't' after it? Plus I just noticed
(with Evolution's spell checker) that 'Request' is misspelt.
#: ../data/glade/filetransfers.glade.h:10
Current:
"Shows a list of file transfers between you and other"
Suggestion:
Should 'other' be changed to 'others'?
#: ../data/glade/preferences_window.glade.h:31
Current:
"Check this option, only if someone you don't have in the roster
spams/annoys you. Use with caution, cause it blocks all messages from
any contact that is not in the roster"
Suggestion:
Maybe change 'cause' to 'because', 'cause' is very slang.
#: ../data/glade/subscription_request_window.glade.h:2
Current:
"Authorize contact so he can know when you're connected"
Suggestion:
Make it not gender specific. 'he' -> 'they'
#: ../data/glade/subscription_request_window.glade.h:3
Current:
"Deny authorization from contact so he cannot know when you're
connected"
Suggestion:
Same as previous.

later by clicking in Accounts menuitem under Edit menu from the main

main window."

Suggestion:

separate line"
Suggestion:
"Prints a list of all contacts in the roster. Each contact appears on a
separate line"
#: ../src/gajim-remote.py:214
Current:

Suggestion:
'unreaded' -> 'unread'

#: ../src/groupchat_control.py:1246
Current:

"You will no longer be able to send and receive messages to contacts
from this transport."
Suggestion:

using this transport."

#: ../src/common/check_paths.py:107
Current:
"%s is file but it should be a directory"
Suggestion:
"%s is a file but it should be a directory"
#: ../src/common/check_paths.py:115
Current:
"%s is directory but should be file"
Suggestion:
"%s is a directory but should be a file"
#: ../src/common/config.py:92
Current:
"Print time in chats using Fuzzy Clock. Value of fuzziness from 1 to 4,
or 0 to disable fuzzyclock. 1 is the most precise clock, 4 the less
precise one. This is used only if print_time is 'sometimes'."
Suggestion:
Change 'less' to 'least'
These are just my thoughts.
