Bug Description
Issue
=====
"OS Updates" is a plural noun and needs a matching plural verb in English ("are" and "include")
What happens
============
1. In the Software app, switch to the Updates tab.
2. When "OS Updates" are available, click Install.
3. After installing, a popup says "OS Updates is now installed"
What should happen
==================
3. After installing, a popup says "OS Updates are now installed"
Similarly, the description for "OS Updates" on the Updates page reads
"Includes performance, stability and security improvements"
But I think it should read
"Include performance, stability and security improvements"
Version: 3.20.1+
