One line (approx 1043) of lazarus\ide\lazarusidestrconsts.pas has the resourcestring declaration:

  dlgRubberbandSelectsGrandChilds = 'Select grand childs';

Because of the irregular nature of some English plurals this should be

  dlgRubberbandSelectsGrandChilds = 'Select grandchildren';

(note - no space, and irregular ending).

Purists would want to rename the resourcestring variable accordingly too.

I'm not sure if this forum is the best place to raise such matters, but since it is not a bug I am not sure where to post it.

Thanks. Fixed.
