Game mode is sometimes referred to as "gamemode"

The bug

The following keys incorrectly refer to the concept of game modes using the spelling "gamemode" (single word):

Translation key Incorrect value (en_us) Notes
debug.creative_spectator.help F3 + N = Cycle previous gamemode <-> spectator  
debug.creative_spectator.error Unable to switch gamemode; no permission  
argument.entity.options.gamemode.description Players with gamemode See also MC-128972

For context, here are the strings that use the correct spelling:

Translation key Correct value (en_us)
gameMode.changed Your game mode has been updated to %s
selectWorld.gameMode Game Mode
debug.gamemodes.help F3 + F4 = Open game mode switcher
debug.gamemodes.error Unable to open game mode switcher; no permission
commands.defaultgamemode.success The default game mode is now %s
commands.gamemode.success.self Set own game mode to %s
commands.gamemode.success.other Set %s's game mode to %s
argument.entity.options.mode.invalid Invalid or unknown game mode '%s'

Steps to reproduce

  1. Press F3 + Q
  2. Find the description for "F3 + N"

Notes

"Game mode" is commonly spelt as a single word within the Minecraft community, coming from the name of the /gamemode command. Nonetheless, the official/correct way to spell it appears to be with two words.
