Please do not take this topic lightly.
The worst thing I feel a game could ever have is typographical errors. They reduce the overall quality of a game. For example, what is possibly the most successful MMORPG of all time, World of Warcraft, has virtually no typographical errors. Their grammar/spelling/punctuation is impeccable. They would be the laughingstock of gaming community if the neglected to correct such errors immediately. Although people are much more forgiving of smaller games such as Puppet Guardian, I still feel that this is an easily addressable issue of utmost concern that should be corrected with haste.
I would like to take this opportunity to vehemently persuade you (the programmers) that the following errors need be fixed:
(This list will be added to.)
Based on the number of items in the picture, many (but not all) of the corrections are changes from plural to singular (and vice versa).
Diamonds → Diamond
Rubies → Ruby
Tourmalines → Tourmaline
Sapphires → Sapphire
Zoisite Gems → Zoisite
Emeralds → Emerald
Old Bracelet → Gold Bracelet
Pearls → Pearl
Gold Nuggets → Gold Nugget
Shell Bugs → Shell Bug
Healing Feathers → Healing Feather
Feathers → Feather
Mammal Scales → Mammal Scale
Yellow Flowers → Yellow Flower
Red Flowers → Red Flower
The CANCEL button on every menu is missing the 'L.'
Many of the menu buttons have the last section cut off. I suspect this is the cause of the above.
I submitted a suggestion to support@puppetguardian.com and received the following reply. However, I am still waiting for this correction to be made. This topic is merely a reminder.

Thanks for the feedback Jefferey. I agree with you and your correction is a helpful one.
Although the comparison with the Japanese version isn't relevant because they handle noun counts in a completely different way than singular vs plural. But from a "usage" point of view Tourmaline at least should clearly not be plural.
