Description

**Page on which the error exists**
https://docs.dyalog.com/21.0/language-reference-guide/system-functions/dt/#time-numbers

**Version of the documentation in which you are reporting the error**
2026-09-08 main:32056d4589

**Describe the error**
The entry in the time numbers for 70, AmigaOS, states "Tick count 1 ms ticks". This is incorrect. The interpreter uses 1 second ticks, as per https://wiki.amigaos.net/wiki/Date_Functions

Should be changed to "Tick count 1 s ticks"

Also: Change "Misc." to "Miscellaneous" in the line above entry 70
