https://www.w3.org/2025/07/30-global-inclusion-minutes.html says: >Localization and Internationalization both relate to translation, but are different as follows: Localization is typically for 2 languages and Internationalization is for 3 or more languages. That's not the usual definition of how they differ. See https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-i18n for the normal explanation. In a nutshell: Designers and developers internationalise products, so that they can be easily localised by translators and localisers. ri > Jan McSorley <mailto:mcsorleyjan@gmail.com> > 30 July 2025 at 15:33 > Hi everyone, > > We had a great discussion about the introduction section of the Voice > Systems and Conversational Interfaces issue paper.
