Fix grammar and spelling in pt-PT translations

[Copilot]

Corrects grammar, spelling, and terminology issues in the Portuguese (Portugal) locale file to align with European Portuguese conventions.

Changes

Spelling corrections:

• invalido → inválido (missing accent)
• anciosos → ansiosos (3 occurrences)
• recomepensas → recompensas (typo)

European Portuguese terminology:

• salvar → guardar (Brazilian → European Portuguese)
• mudanças → alterações (more formal/standard in pt-PT)

Grammar improvements:

• email em → email para (correct preposition for email addresses)
• ajudarmos-te → ajudar-te (proper infinitive form)

All translation keys, placeholders, and original meaning preserved.

Original prompt

Review and correct grammar issues in the Portuguese (Portugal) locale for the hackclub/apply repository.

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.
• 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.
• Ensure consistent terminology across the locale (e.g., "inscrição" vs "candidatura", "utilizador" vs "usuário" — prefer European Portuguese forms such as "utilizador" and "candidatura" where appropriate).
• 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: fix grammar and spelling in translations").
• 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 neutral, formal 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.
