Good morning,

Reading xproc.html for PG14, in both french and english, I wonder if french 
translation is totally accurate.

The english version says :
Certain function attributes, such as strictness, don't apply to procedures. 
Those attributes control how the function is used in a query, which isn't 
relevant to procedures.

while the french version says:
Certains attributs de fonction, tel que la volatilité, ne s'applique pas aux 
procédures. Ces attributs contrôlent comment la fonction est appelée dans une 
requête, ce qui est hors propos pour les procédures.

In my understanding, strictness and volatility do not have the say meaning. Am 
I wrong ?

What's more, the french sentence should have been written like "Certains 
attributs de fonction... ne s'applique*nt* pas..." I would also have written 
the second part slightly diffrently : "Ces attributs contrôlent l'utilisation 
de la fonction dans une requête, et ne sont pas pertinents dans le cas de 
procédures."

Best,

--
