Noticed a minor typo (missing space) in a new-tab snippet.
STR:
1. Receive the "Are you a web developer?" snippet on your new tab page.
(This snippet appeared for me in my normal browsing profile, as well as in a fresh profile after I dismissed all of the onboarding snippets.)
2. Click "Yes, I am!"
3. Look at the button on the second part of that snippet's flow.
ACTUAL RESULTS:
The button is labeled "Nevermind".
EXPECTED RESULTS:
Button should be labeled "Never mind".
The single-word spelling, "Nevermind", is technically a noun with different semantics from the verb/command phrasing "Never mind". See:
https://www.grammarly.com/blog/nevermind-or-never-mind/
Quoting that post:
> 'Never mind' tells someone to disregard a matter.
> It can also mean “not to mention” or “certainly not.”
>
> 'Never mind' should be two words in almost all contexts.
>
> 'Nevermind' (one word) is part of the colloquial
> expression “[pay something] no nevermind.”

Thanks for the flag Dan, we're going to change it to "Dismiss".
