Original prompt

Review and correct grammar issues in the Portuguese (Portugal) locale for the hackclub/apply repository, using informal tone and current terminology preferences ("inscrição" and "utilizador").

Scope:

• Find all pt-PT locale/translation files (commonly under locales/, i18n/, or src/i18n/, e.g., locales/pt-PT/*.json, locales/pt-PT.yml, or similar paths).
• Fix grammar, spelling, punctuation, and diacritic usage to follow European Portuguese (pt-PT) conventions, in an informal tone.
• Preserve original meaning and placeholders (e.g., %s, {{name}}, {count}), interpolation tokens, ICU pluralization syntax, and HTML tags inside strings.
• Keep translation keys intact; only change values.
• Use "inscrição" for apply-related wording and "utilizador" for user-related wording.
• Update any README or locale metadata that indicates translation completeness if applicable.

Deliverables:

• Create a new branch off main named fix/pt-PT-grammar.
• Commit updated pt-PT locale files with clear commit messages (e.g., "pt-PT: corrige gramática e ortografia nas traduções").
• Open a pull request titled: "Fix grammar in pt-PT translations" with a description summarizing the changes and noting any decisions made (terminology choices, pluralization fixes, preserved placeholders).

Quality checks:

• Do not change file encodings; preserve UTF-8 with proper accents.
• Run repository i18n checks or tests if present; include in PR description whether tests pass.
• If uncertain about ambiguous phrases, prefer informal, neutral European Portuguese and add a short note in the PR about such choices.

Please perform the edits directly in the repository and open the PR. After creating the PR, include a short summary of the main types of corrections made and list the files changed.
