Sky Wars
Affected Text:
- A caixa explosiva de golpe de efeito definitivo
- Caixa Explosiva de Fogo
Suggested Text:
- Super Boom Box de Repulsão
- Boom Box de Fogo
Explanation of Issue:
- The translation looks like a movie title. If you translate it back to english, it’s something like ‘‘The definitive effect hit explosive box’’, it’s so weird.
The suggested translation narrows it down to 3 words:
- Super: Ultimate does not have a translation into Portuguese in the sense used for the boombox. This word does have a translation into Portuguese (Ultimato), but it does not fit here because it only works in the sense of being ‘a final thing’. The word ‘Super’ does not fully reference the same original meaning, but it works in a similar way, meaning that it is a improved knockback boombox
- Boombox: The Boom Boxes in the games already have this name, as they are not translated, so there is no reason to change the name of the weekly items. Keeping the name Boom Box makes it easier for both old players who already know the item, and for new players who will see the item in several different minigames.
- de Repulsão: ‘Knockback’ enchantment name in Portuguese Minecraft translation
- Changed the translation back to the original name, Boom Box, as suggested in translation 1
