      The Bug:

      Death messages relating to the thorns enchantment don't contain conjunctions where appropriate, unlike every other death message in the game, therefore introducing an inconsistency.

      Below is a table I've constructed that lists the affected death messages to show the issue that's present here.

      Affected Strings:

      Before reading the table, please note the following:

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

       

      Translation Key Current String Expected String
      death.attack.thorns %1$s was killed trying to hurt %2$s %1$s was killed while trying to hurt %2$s
      death.attack.thorns.item %1$s was killed by %3$s trying to hurt %2$s %1$s was killed by %3$s while trying to hurt %2$s

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Locate any of the affected strings as listed above.
      2. Take note as to whether or not death messages relating to the thorns enchantment contain conjunctions where appropriate.

      Observed Behavior:

      Conjunctions are not present within the affected death messages.

      Expected Behavior:

      Conjunctions would be present within the affected death messages to maintain consistency with every other death message in the game.
