Changing the language changes the texts you emphasised :

So it would seem the texts are customized and not hard coded. Probably the location in and/or structure of the XML has changed with the last major release.

No, you understood wrong. I want the text will be in normal case after begining sentences [...]
P.S. It is known that if i reduce first letter case, for example, in word “Frequency”, this word will become in lower case everywhere in interface

Totally i want remove "..., Frequency (Hz)" and replace by "..., Hz" because it is hidh absurd that first, word "frequency" started with capital letter, second, "Frequency (Hz)" follows by comma instead of only "Hz"

As to the way the units are presented that's as it is. It's quite common to use <quantity> (<unit>) or <quantity> / <unit>. To replace "Frequency" by "frequency" you could try :

Code: Select all

$ grep '>Frequency' strings_en_US.xml 
        <string name="LBL__DESC_FREQ">Frequency</string>

No, it is not common. In Russia we write, for example, "HP-filter frequency, Hz"

I'll close this topic and suggest you mind your attitude.
