Fix typo: 'extensions functions' -> 'extension functions' in documentation.
|
I think it's a correct fix but I have a doubt now. @python/proofreaders could you confirm this is a typo (I'm not sure if we can have both plural for extension and function/method if there are many extensions and many functions/methods in each of those extensions). Whether it is or not, I would have learned. |

I agree, the prior language is incorrect. This change is solid; after the PR's edit, 'extension' is a nominative, modifying 'functions and methods'. Another option with essentially the same meaning but a slight change in emphasis would be "your extensions' functions and methods", where "extensions'" becomes a plural possessive attached to 'functions and methods'. The difference is in the sense of what the 'your' is referring to. In the edit of the PR, it's "your ... functions and methods". In my alternative, it's "your extensions". +1 to a change, neutral on which. |

Thanks for the confirmation and the detailed explanation. We'll go with the current change as we avoid the use of ' (which for non-native English speakers may seem as a unusal glyph).
Note: both wordings would be correct.
I'll merge this tomorrow as well.
