de/README.md: Alles ist im Singular

[funkyfuture]

this just fixes a grammatical error in the german translation.

[funkyfuture]

the noun "Alles" surprisingy doesn't appear in the dwds, but there's an entry of an idiom where it is contained, all examples show that the numerus is singular: https://www.dwds.de/wb/Ein%20und%20Alles

[sholderbach]

Mhh that translation sounds just weird.

[funkyfuture]

i noticed that too. but i think the proper grammar just emphasizes that the expression is plain marketing gibberish. and indeed, i luckily didn't have data for dinner. even or especially in the domain of software it doesn't makes a distinguishable point. for any software everything is data.

@sholderbach Can we merge this PR?

[ehasnain]

I think a bit more comprehensible translation would be:

Alles besteht aus Daten.

[Kissaki]

I'm a native German speaker. The originally suggested "Alles ist Daten" sounds awful and honestly doesn't make sense.

Alles may be grammatically singular but does not represent singular. It's everything. So sind makes more sense.

I think the original or what @ehasnain suggested is much better. With the details context, what @ehasnain suggested is a good and fitting title.

Honestly, I think the original EN text could be improved in the same way as here. The statement is too generic and text-shell-context-knowledge dependent. But we don't have to raise that here in this specific PR.

That's because there is (at least to my understanding) no noun "Alles", except as a substantiation of "alles" (DWDS, German Wiktionary, English Wiktionary).

Mhh that translation sounds just weird.

Indeed, but with the change proposed here, it's at least grammatically correct, so that's an improvement.

Indeed. As the data traveler (Datenreisende) Wau Holland famously uttered:

Alles ist eins – außer der Null

(They even made a movie about him titled thusly. But I digress.)

While even with this change, the title in question remains far from perfect, the change is an improvement and it's unclear which further improvement beyond it (if any) would be the right one. Thus I recommend to merge this PR as-is, as PR reviews are probably not the right forum to come up with a yet better solution.
