Oh, and I'm wondering:

KDE recommand to not use contractions in user-visible strings.
But is "dislike" a contraction?

A question for English native speakers:

Currently, I try to always use "do not like" in strings.
But should I:
- Keep "do not like" to avoid "contraction"
- Change to "dislike" because "do not like" is not very English
- Altern "do not like" and "dislike" because they are the same

?
