Incorrectly named Group Shout section

Description: Roblox groups that contain a Group Shout section have incorrect names. The section is named “Shout” instead of “Group Shout”, and the button is named “Group Shout” instead of “Shout”. Therefore, in other translations “Shout” means an action and “Group Shout” means a section.

Reproduce

  • Visit any Roblox group that contains Group Shout
  • (optional) To make it more obvious that it should be the other way around, change the language of the site to one you know

Expected behavior
The header should be named “Group Shout” and the button “Shout”.

Actual behavior
The button is called “Group Shout” and the header is called “Shout”.

Browser
Google Chrome / Windows 11

I guess that’s true but, I mean is it really that bad? I think I can live with it.

Hello, thank you for the report! This header element is intentionally named “Shout” since it is on a Group page already, so we don’t want to be redundant. That is a valid concern that translations could be confusing, but we provide our translators with context about the usage of the word to avoid that issue. If you know of a specific language where the wrong the translation of “Shout” is used, please let us know and we can fix that translation! Thanks.

Should the Group Shout button be renamed to Post to keep consistency with the group wall post button?

Incorrect translation occurs in Polish (translation for Heading.Shout should be “Ogłoszenie” instead of “Ogłoś”)
