Talk:Analog

Name
Should we change the spelling to "Analog" to use American spelling rules? American English tends to distinguish between the two spellings, reserving "analogue" to mean "something which is like something else" (as in, the modern analogue of X), but not "something which an analogy is drawn from" (as in, "In an analogy, the analog corresponds to the target.") or "not digital; ranging continuously between values" (as in, "analog signal.") Meanwhile, British English tends to spell all of them as "analogue." Haha, it doesn't really matter. Ok (talk) 16:03, February 22, 2019 (EST)
 * We would use whatever name the villager is called in-game. So if the game refers to him as Analogue, we will too, regardless of American English spelling rules. Drago   (talk)     Drago PC icon.png 12:11, February 23, 2019 (EST)
 * He only appears in the Japanese DnMe+, so he doesn't have an official in-game spelling for his name in English. His in-game name is アナログ (Anarogu), which is just the English word analog/analogue. Ok (talk) 12:56, February 23, 2019 (EST)
 * Sorry for late reply. I've just looked at Liquefy's guide for DnMe+ (which is usually accurate) and it interestingly lists the villager as Analog. So, I think we should change the spelling. Drago   (talk)     Drago PC icon.png 11:19, February 25, 2019 (EST)
 * Thank you. To be honest, it doesn't really matter what Liquify spelled it as, because it really is a matter of style; but it does show that other people in the community do spell it that way. By the way, this is just me going into the linguistic minutia, but that's probably the proper spelling for the meaning analog has in Japanese (as far as I know, it is only used as the counterpart to digital.)
