Subject: [PATCH 05/11] doc: correct grammar in Intel platform guide
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 13:06:21 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260116211649.104776-6-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260116211649.104776-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
Change "take" to "taken" in passive construction.
Change "you wants" to "you want".
Rephrase awkward "If it wants" construction.
Change "drivers needs" to "drivers need" for subject-verb agreement.
