0003822: Countess title in the nobles screen is "a county", not countess as expected.
Just like it says on the tin; my countesses noble title is "a county" and not countess as expected.
Have a Baron/Baroness promoted and check the title.
I can't recall if the Baroness title had the same issue and I don't have a save from that time. One factoid; I promoted by mayor to Baroness in order to avoid having to make multiple high quality rooms and the same dwarf currently holds both titles. I don't know if this may have caused the issue but its something to note.
No tags attached.

I don't think there's any gender specific positions on the nobles screen at this point in time. This might be intentional. Although I can't help but wonder if this is the cause of the current bug preventing the baron from being able to do any of the things a baron is supposed to do, like allow the dungeon master to be appointed.

"County" means the land that a count/countess rules over (c.f. [LAND_NAME:a county] in entity_default.txt). Are you sure that's not what you're seeing? A screenshot would be helpful.

This looks eerily similar to 0003369.

Good catch, I guess it's just displaying the wrong field there.
