Fire charge used on a block is called "Fireball" in subtitles

The bug:

I have found a simple mistake in the subtitles in the game. I found it when I translated the game to my language on Crowdin. The source string is : “Fireball whooshes”. It should be Firecharge. It even says in the Key: "subtitles.item.firecharge.use" and the reference key when making a resource pack: subtitles.item.firecharge.use.

Notice:

This is not when the firecharge gets used in a dispenser. This is exclusively when it is used just like a flint and steal. I am not asking to change something. I am just asking to correct a misspelling from the developers

h3 How to reproduce:

  1. Be in any world and have the default language, US English, enabled. And have the subtitles off course enabled.
  2. Use a firecharge as a flint and steel and light something on fire like shown in the screenshot.
  3. Notice that Fireball is used in the subtitle, even dough you just used a firecharge.{}

I have even checked in the game. This gets used for the firecharge, not the fireball. To change fireball to firecharge, then everything will fit together seamlessly.
