minecraft.net/live is extremely poorly translated in French (minecraft.net/fr-fr/live), causing a syntax that make absolutely no sense in some cases.
- Throughout the page, "bundle" has been translated by "lot." However, "lot" refers to a group of products in a commercial context, which is not appropriate here. "sac" would be a more accurate translation to refer to a bundle as a sack. "sac" also happens to be the translation used in the Java Edition since it was first added in 2020 - and thus has been adopted by the community (cf. crowdin)
- In the sentance "A first look at the pale garden and its hostile mob—the creaking, insight into bundles and Hardcore mode, and [...]", the first comma (follwing "the creaking" appears to have been overlooked, causing "the creaking" to be awkwardly placed in the middle of the sentence. This misplacement makes it seem as though the "insight" is what is creaking, which is clearly not the intended meaning.
- The name of the drop, "Bundles of Bravery", has been translated, however the capital letters were not kept - making it unclear that it is in fact a name (especially considering that "bundles" was poorly translated in the first place, making it even more confusing).
- Most other languages (es-es, de-de, it-it, fr-ca, etc.) seem not to translate the following names (yet fr-fr does):
- "Bundles of Bravery"
- "Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue"
- "Hardcore" (futhermore, this one has never been translated in Java Edition ; cf. crowdin, and thus is the actual term used by the French community)
The fr-ca translation is better and could genuinly just be used for the fr-fr page. However, here is a fixed translation (although I am well aware that it won't/cannot be used):
| en-us | fr-fr (current) | fr-fr (proposal) |
|---|---|---|

With all due respect to whoever worked on this, this seems to be a common issue throughout minecraft.net (whenever a page is translated), and I would recommand taking action as this unfortunately gives a very unprofessional vibe to the website/franchise.
