xhwang-chromium has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/encrypted-media:

== Editorial: Typos, grammar errors, and spelling inconsistencies ==
_Created with the help of AI._

During a review of the Encrypted Media Extensions specification, the following editorial issues were identified.

## 1. Typos and Spelling Errors

| Section | Current Text | Suggested Correction |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **7.1.1. Get Supported Configuration** | "...required by an **implementtion** with this..." | "...required by an **implementation** with this..." |
| **7.1.1. Get Supported Configuration** | "...that are **suported** by the implementation" | "...that are **supported** by the implementation" |
| **10.3. MediaKeys - setServerCertificate** | "...promise rejected with **a new a newly** created {{TypeError}}." | "...promise rejected with **a newly** created {{TypeError}}." |
| **11.2. MediaKeySession - generateRequest** | "...before a license **request request** for the..." | "...before a license **request** for the..." |
| **15.1. General Requirements** | "All **identifers** except [=Permanent Identifiers=]..." | "All **identifiers** except [=Permanent Identifiers=]..." |
| **15.1. General Requirements** | "All **identifers** SHOULD be encrypted..." | "All **identifiers** SHOULD be encrypted..." |
| **15.3. Encrypt Identifiers** | "For **identifers** exposed to the application..." | "For **identifiers** exposed to the application..." |
| **16.5. Attacks by Other Pages** | "This is especially **relevent** for implementations..." | "This is especially **relevant** for implementations..." |

## 2. Grammar and Missing Words

| Section | Current Text | Suggested Correction |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **16.5. Attacks by Other Pages** | "...iframe in an **attempt hide** an..." | "...iframe in an **attempt to hide** an..." |

## 3. Spelling Inconsistencies (US vs. UK English)

The specification predominantly uses US English (e.g., "individualization", "behavior", "sanitization"). The following instances are inconsistent with the rest of the document:

*   **Behavior vs. Behaviour:** In **Section 12.1**, the text uses "**behaviour**" (Line 5573). There are 11 other instances where the US spelling "**behavior**" is used (e.g., Lines 470, 523, 639, 2893, 2919).
    *   *Suggested fix:* Change "**behaviour**" to "**behavior**" for consistency.
*   **Acknowledgement vs. Acknowledgment:** In **Section 11.2** (Line 4511), the text uses "**acknowledgment**". There are 5 other instances where the spelling "**acknowledgement**" (with an 'e') is used (Lines 3407, 4274, 5511, 7806, 9269).
    *   *Suggested fix:* Change "**acknowledgment**" to "**acknowledgement**" for consistency.
