[Lazarus] Cycle vs. Circle errors

[marcelo.bp]

I must agree with Felipe.

Cyclic to me, remember something that repeats within a period.
I just recall one error that uses the term "cyclic" that is the well known 
"CRC error".

So I must keep the translations as they are, and keep the word "circular" in 
portuguese where "cyclic/cycle" is referred.

Thanks everyone.

Marcelo.

But people speak of "circular unit reference". I never heard "cyclic
unit reference". If you search for "cyclic unit reference" in Google,
it will give results for "circular unit reference" instead.

For me something cyclic makes multiple turns.
