Clarify that static caravans are mobile homes in American English translation

[BjornRasmussen]

Most Americans refer to static caravans as either trailers or mobile homes, but never as static caravan. Adding an additional part to the definition in American English, like in this screenshot, would make it more clear.

So, static caravan is a British English word?

[peternewman]

What exactly are we talking about, an overgrown portacabin? Because your picture shows a caravan that is definitely not static.

So, static caravan is a British English word?

Yes seemingly:

Although I think I'd normally use mobile home:

Confusingly similar in name to, but entirely different from a motor home:

So "mobile home" would work for both US English and GB English?

[peternewman]

Perhaps put mobile home first and static caravan second? It's not as clear cut as house or houseboat I'd say, so using a few terms is probably of benefit.

[westnordost]

I asked some Americans on slack. "Caravan" is pretty unknown there, so caravan should only be used in the en-GB translation.

[peternewman]

Okay. Well personally I'm happy with mobile home too on the British side.

With this and #2204 , do you want to make the change and push it up to POEditor so we can go and make the equivalent translation edits, or not in the case of #2204 or are you going to do both ends of it?
