Bug Description

Binary package hint: qtparted

1. Display partition properties. Second line of box says "it start at: <cyl> and end at <cyl>". Should be "starts at" and "ends at".

2. Commit changes.
a) Box says "... you can lost data!" (should be "lose data").
b) Box says "In other word PLEASE UMOUNT..." (should be "in other words").
c) Buttons are labelled "Yes" and "No", but there's no question in the box. Is the question "continue with partitioning" or "quit now"?!
