      The Bug:

      Several strings throughout the game contain comma splices.

      For a bit of context, a comma splice is when an instance of a comma is used to link two independent clauses, (an independent clause is a clause that can form a complete sentence standing alone). The use of a comma splice is grammatically incorrect and should instead be replaced with a colon, semicolon, conjunction, or a period/full stop.

      Affected Strings:

      Before reading the table, please note the following:

      • Characters colored in GREEN are correct.
      • Characters colored in RED are incorrect.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Display any of the affected strings as listed above by using the command provided below and replacing "XYZ" with the string's translation key.
        /tellraw @s {"translate":"XYZ"}
      2. Look closely at how the comma is used within the said string.

      Observed Behavior:

      Comma splices are present.

      Expected Behavior:

      No comma splices would be present. All instances of this grammatical error should instead be replaced with a colon, semicolon, conjunction, or a period/full stop.
