Libre Office is, from its roots, a German product iirc. That big
clean-up I mentioned included translating most of the comments from
German into English.
Not surprisingly, therefore, LO is a European-based product, with many
(maybe a majority?) of devs being non-native-English speakers. (It
doesn't help when Americans think they speak English :-) Besides English
(which may be a minority, as I said), I suspect a large portion of
people here have as their native language either German or a variant of
Slav.
Cheers,
Wol
