winget source

Brief description of your issue

The german translation of winget source list translates "Explicit", aka whether a source should be implicitely used on only when the source is explicitely specified, as "Anstößig", which is the meaning of explicit like in explicit content.

Name           Argument                                                            Anstößig
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
msstore        https://storeedgefd.dsx.mp.microsoft.com/v9.0                       false
winget         https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache                              false
winget-font    https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/fonts                              true

(I do hope the font repository doesn't have explicit content...)

Steps to reproduce

Run winget source list on a german system.

Expected behavior

"explicit" should be translated correctly.

Actual behavior

"explicit" is not translated correctly.
