The Bug:
There is a comma splice present within a launcher string used for an unsuccessful attempt at trying to launch the game.
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.
Below is a table I've constructed that highlights this error. You can find information about what the current and expected string is and would be, some context regarding it, and a link to the appropriate string on crowdin.
| Current String | Expected/Suggested String | String Context | String URL on Crowdin |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unable to start <game>, if you are running from a dmg, please drag to Applications and try again. | Unable to start <game>. If you are running from a dmg, please drag to Applications and try again. | <game> may replaced with "Minecraft" or "Minecraft Dungeons". Specific to Mac OSX installations. | https://crowdin.com/translate/minecraft-launcher/9444/en-engb#5227280 |
Steps to Reproduce:
- Locate the affected string as listed above.
- Take note as to whether or not there is a comma splice present within a launcher string used for an unsuccessful attempt at trying to launch the game.
Observed Behavior:
A comma splice is present.
Expected Behavior:
No comma splice would be present. This should instead be replaced with a colon, semicolon, conjunction, or a period/full stop.
