Tooltips

At the current stage Polyglot allows to translate such text from item tooltips. You need to add a line of the following format to the translation file:

"item.dungeons_and_combat.molten_blazing_sword.polyglot.desc1": "§7Hit Effect:_&_§7Хит эффект:"

Where item.dungeons_and_combat.molten_blazing_sword is the item's identifier

Component	Description
item.dungeons_and_combat.molten_blazing_sword.polyglot.desc1	Item identifier
polyglot.desc1	Identifier that specifies what exactly we will be translating
§7Hit Effect:	Text to be found in the tooltip
§7Хит эффект:	My translation
_&_	A separator to separate the original text from the replacement

What is desc1 and can there be desc2 and desc3?
The word desc means that this is the data for the tooltip. If you want to translate multiple lines in one subject, you just increase the value by one:

{
  "mykey.polyglot.desc1": "orig1_&_replace1",
  "mykey.polyglot.desc2": "orig2_&_replace2",
  "mykey.polyglot.desc3": "orig2_&_replace2"
}

But if you break the sequence, like this:

{
  "mykey.polyglot.desc1": "orig1_&_replace1",
  "mykey.polyglot.desc3": "orig3_&_replace3",
  "mykey.polyglot.desc4": "orig4_&_replace4"
}

Then the translation will end with desc1.

Example:

"item.dungeons_and_combat.molten_blazing_sword.polyglot.desc2": " §9Fire_&_ §9Огонь"

In order for you to get the source of the tooltip, you can hover over the item and press the P button. Information in this format will be written to the log file:

[04:54:17] [Render thread/INFO]: ---Polyglot: [item.dungeons_and_combat.silver_dagger]---

[04:54:18] [Render thread/INFO]: |NBT: 1 тег(ов)
[04:54:18] [Render thread/INFO]: ---

You can easily find this information in the logs using the keyword Polyglot and see the item's id and its tooltip text. I have purposely made each line start with the | symbol so that you can see the spaces at the beginning of the line.
