Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Bad grammar "You's expense(s)" instead of "Your expense(s)" in report banner

What is the root cause of that problem?

This is what we are implementing

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

If we do not want to add the name of use then we have to remove this

{ 
     text: `${ownerDisplayName}'s`, 
     type: 'strong', 
 },

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

If we want to remove 's then we will remove it https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/040c8017219d4ca3650e41d41660c04d6b5a2d64/src/libs/NextStepUtils.ts#L138-L141

Proposal

Bad grammar "You's expense(s)" instead of "Your expense(s)" in report banner

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

What is the root cause of that problem?

here we dont handle the case where the ownerDisplayName resolves to "You" https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/18ce38bf425d5e0bb37bd1e81ca127abec15addf/src/libs/NextStepUtils.ts#L138-L141

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

• in this case we should add a condition to check if the the ownerDisplayName is you then replace it with your and remove the 's after the your word:
• also we should take care of the translation because you changes depending on the localize language

suggested change: import translate from useLocalize

    const {translate} = useLocalize();

optionally also we need to define the languages translations for your

then use it here:

text:  ownerDisplayName === translate('common.you')? `${translate('common.your')}`: `${ownerDisplayName }'s`,

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Bad grammar "You's expense(s)" instead of "Your expense(s)" in report banner

What is the root cause of that problem?

We always add 's to the ownerDisplayName here https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/040c8017219d4ca3650e41d41660c04d6b5a2d64/src/libs/NextStepUtils.ts#L138-L141

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

set the text to "Your" if the the owner name is "You"

const isOwnerYou = ownerDisplayName === Localize.translateLocal('common.you');
...
            {
                text: isOwnerYou ? 'Your' : `${ownerDisplayName}'s`,
                type: 'strong',
            },

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

Base on expected result we should display "Waiting for expense(s) to automatically submit on Sunday", so we need change this to the following

    ...(!isOwnerYou ? [
        {
            text: `${ownerDisplayName}'s`,
            type: 'strong',
        },
    ] : []),
