Fairy Stone
Current: 精灵石
Correct: 仙女石/仙子石
(in Chinese, "fairy" usually refers to 仙女, in the game, it refers to 农作物仙子, while 精灵 should be elves）

Fairy Stone's description
English: An old miner's song suggests these are made from the bones of ancient fairies.
Current: 古老的矿工歌谣里说，这些石头是古代精灵的骨头做的。
Correct: 古老的矿工歌谣里说，这些石头是古代仙子的骨头做的。
(精灵的骨头(bones of elves) contradicts what is said in Elvish Jewelry's description "No Elvish bones have ever been found" )

a personal suggestion for Fern Islands
It is currently named “芬”群岛 and could easily be misinterpreted as “芬群”岛，because it is rare to use only one character for a place name in Chinese. From my own point of view, I suggest changing the translation to “芬恩群岛”，which will reduce the likelihood of misunderstandings

English: Uh... how did you get this in your inventory? Ape made a booboo.

(Dictionaries say that "made a booboo" means made a mistake. I guess here ConcernedApe means that he's surprised. However, the current translation translated booboo into injury)

"Object.cs.13073": "一个用于制作 {0} 的配方",
"Object.cs.13074": "用于制造 {0} 的设计图",

Please just delete the spaces on both sides of the {0}. This resulted in weird spaces in Chinese sentences.

Rarecrows
First of all, I suggest that they need to be renamed as 稀有稻草人 instead of the current "珍奇乌鸦".
I know that "Rarecrow" and "Scarecrow" might be some kind of puns. However, in Chinese, "scarecrow" simply means "straw man", which has nothing to do with crows in the literal sense. So, it's quite confusing to translate "Rarecrow" to "rare crows". "Rare scarecrow"(rare straw man) might be a better idea.

Second, the number format in the description text is confusing
for example: 将它们全部收齐！（8-1）
In English, the text is "1 of 8". It's obvious what it means: This is the first one, and there are 8 in total. However, I didn't know what (8-1) meant until I saw it in English. For a better understanding, I suggest completing the sentence in the Chinese translation as：第1个，共8个

Spring Onion Mastery cutscene

1. Vincent's dialog
English: "sp...spwing onion"
Current: “圭..菁葱”
Correct: “青…菁葱”
（I know that the current translation used the word "圭", which is split from the word "青", to match with "sp...spwing" in English. However, this translation makes the whole conversation difficult to understand.）

2. Jas' dialog
English: "No, no, no, no......"
Current: “不要…要…”
Correct: “不要…不要…”

3. Spring onions are now worth 5x the gold!

The mail sent by Lewis on fall 26 about Spirit's Eve
(Well, the mail's Chinese translation is of poor quality. So I'll just post the full text of the version I rewrote without comparing them.)

Dear <player>, Notice a chill in the air? It could just be the approach of winter... Or it could be the tingle of a dark specter, here to help us celebrate tomorrow's festival... the Spirit's Eve. Come to town at 10 PM if you'd like to participate. -Mayor Lewis

亲爱的 @，
寒气在空中弥漫，可能只是冬季来临前的预兆……
或者是那些黑暗的游魂，正呼啸着和我们一起庆祝明天的节日……万灵节！
晚上10点来镇里 和我们一起庆祝吧。
-镇长刘易斯

 

[Pathoschild]

This is really scraping the barrel so feel free to ignore, but looks to me like there is an extra space between "was" and "an". It's from a heart event.

When I first met Professor Snail in front of the cave his name was translated perfectly, but when I visited him in his tent his name wasn't translated at all.

This is an issue in all languages other than English. The initial dialog translates his name, but shows in English in all subsequent dialogs.

I noticed in a quest I got that it asked me to kill "Dust Spirit" but I think this should be "Dust Sprite".

Once married to Penny, when gifting the player in the morning she says: "Hi, honey! I did some shopping this morning and got this for you. I thought you could really use one of the those."

Fixed in the upcoming Stardew Valley 1.6. Thanks for reporting them!

When Morris is talking to the player after completing the Joja warehouse, he says ‘concieved’ but it should be ‘conceived.’

When you return to Willy after a fishing quest (those "fish n X), he says: "Hey, you suceeded, [Player]"

When Abigail says "We are all going to the saloon, it's like a Friday tradition," the F in Friday didn't get capitalized

These seem to already be fixed in the upcoming Stardew Valley 1.6. Thanks for reporting them!
