Replace incorrect words for Dependee in States API

Patch Drupal version 10.1.x

Please read the tags also this still needs an issue summary update

This really needs someone who know the State API to confirm the word changes.

So tried to find someone, thought maybe we had a states API manager but do not.

Looking at the pure replacement used though and it appears to be a good 1-1 update.

The issue summary and title say the opposite of what the patch does, could use an update.

Updated issue summary.

What about the concerns raised in #14?

And what about the counter-proposal in #18? Maybe it's better to leave this alone, per https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dependee -- "Dependee" is enough of a "word" to have a wikipedia article devoted to itself. Perhaps we should call this "works as designed" and move on?

Some discussion on this word at https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/25575/what-is-the-correct-wo...

#46 is correct, the BC layer is missing.

I'm not native and dependee makes sense to me (like employer/employee) so to take with a grain of salt: I'd be for leaving this alone given the work needed to make it work properly (depreciation, bc layer, etc.)

So is the new consensus to leave as is?

yes, consulted with other core committers we're moving the word to drupal-dictionary.

see 📌 Keep the word dependee and move it to drupal-dictionary.txt Active

I think a similar example is where performant got added to the Cambridge dictionary due to its technical usage even though it was not really an English word before that, although in this case nod_ pointed out it's also a real French word that translates to the same meaning as its used in English. So I think we can treat it as a neologism rather than a mis-spelling. I think if we were going to try to change this in the states API we might want to completely change the vocabulary (no idea what to, but something without the ambiguity of dependency/dependent/dependee).
