Across locales

What each covering migration carries for this concept, per locale — the whole-brain view, not filtered by your language. Forms are the migration's leaf values (pre-transform, pre-human-verdict); a locale without a form falls back to canonical English. Chips open that locale's live docs page for this term.

Explanation

To maintain consistency with 'download' and align with the common Tok Pisin usage for obtaining something, 'kisim' is a better fit for 'fetch'. The core action is receiving data, even if it's requested.

Issue breakdown

  • accuracy While 'painim' (find/seek) is related, 'kisim' (get/receive) is more common for obtaining something, even if it requires searching. 'Painim' implies more effort in the *finding* than the *getting*.
  • consistency Inconsistent with 'download' which uses 'kisim'.
