            Bug ID: 143173
           Summary: Writer - Alphabetical Index - Grouped entries
                    abbreviation not localised (in fr_FR)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gregoire_c at yahoo.fr

Description:
With the French version of Writer (v7.1.4.2), I still get an old (and unwanted)
abbreviation to qualify grouped entries in the index. 

Currently, in the FR version, an index entry appearing on consecutive pages
displays the first page number in the range followed with the "sv" abbrev.: 
ENTRY ... 1 sv 

Also, the same "sv" abbrev. is used to cover the cases rendered in English with
"p" (2 consecutive pages, i.e. "1-2") and "pp" (more than 2 consecutive pages,
i.e. "1-5"). 

I had discussed the matter with the localisation team several months ago, and
they had agreed to use the more formal and widely used abbreviations "sq." (EN:
p) and "sqq." (EN: pp). 

Since then, the localisation team did their part and updated the translations
which show up in the UI (Edit Index panel). Unfortunately, Writer doesn't
behave according to the wording in the panel. See screenshot. 

This is a rather minor issue. I can update manually the "sv" string in the
final index, but it is painful and I don't think it is a good idea to show
discrepancies between the messages in the UI and the behaviour of the software.

Could we implement the display of the abbreviations as per the specs for the
French version? 
- 2 consecutive pages ==> "sq." 
- 3 or more consecutive pages ==> "sqq." 


Steps to Reproduce:
With a fr_FR version of Writer: 
1. Create a document with 3 pages 
2. Create the same index entry on each page 
3. Create an alphabetical index 

Actual Results:
ENTRY ... 1 sv 

Expected Results:
ENTRY ... 1 sqq. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
