 8.  Hi [@tjtaylor](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tjtaylor/),
 9.  Those seem to be machine translations. Do you really speak Brazilian Portuguese?
 10. [@tobifjellner](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tobifjellner/) commented in another
     request about this matter, and I’ll quote him here, to provide an explanation 
     about that:

           me know if she has any doubt about it.
         - 1. Please translate stringsString A string is a translatable part of the
           software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings.. The
           translation for “No items” isn’t “No items”.
            2. Translations need to make
           sense. “Customizado RSS FeedRSS Feed RSS is an acronym for Real Simple Syndication
           which is a type of web feed which allows users to access updates to online
           content in a standardized, computer-readable format. This is the feed.” 
           doesn’t mean anything, as in Portuguese we use adjectives after nouns. Also,
           it doesn’t comply with our Glossary. 3. You can point the PluginPlugin A
           plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be
           added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features
           to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming
           language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the
           WordPress.org Plugin Directory [https://wordpress.org/plugins/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/)
           or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party. URI to the pt_BR version
           of it ([https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-rss-retriever/](https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-rss-retriever/))
           4. ALL strings in readme lack proper accentuation. 5. “GutenbergGutenberg
           The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor
           improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing
           rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than 
           shortcodes, custom HTML etc. [https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/](https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/)
           BlockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that,
           composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress
           editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved
           with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent
           API and user experience.” should be translated, as “Text tab” and others.
