Relates to MCL-23128 and MCL-23171.
The Bug:
A variable is missing in one of the GamePassUpsell strings, which makes it untranslatable in certain languages, or at least difficult to translate due to the lack of a way to rearrange the word order.
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.
Affected String:
Current String | Expected String | String Context | String URL on Crowdin |
|---|---|---|---|

h3. Steps to Reproduce:
Locate the affected string as listed above in the launcher.
Take note as to whether or not this string has a variable that can be used to rearrange the word order.
Observed Behavior:
The string contains no variable. Translators will not be able to rearrange the position of either "Minecraft Legends Standard Edition" or "Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition" in the text.
Expected Behavior:
The string has a variable; each language can rearrange the word order within the sentence at will. Alternatively, these two strings are each merged into a single string (in both variants).
