       are localization and internationalization the same thing in software?

       @Acer I'm yet to come across "Internationalization" in any software!

       @Acer I have. But you don't see it as an option in software. For example mastodon is an internationalized software whose Interface language setting can be changed to any supported language. You can have a setting to localize an application but you can't have a setting to internationalize an application.

       @AcerNot quite.Internationalisation (or i18n) is the process of making software translatable. Plus language specific things like dates, currencies and writing direction.Localisation (or l10n) is providing the translation but also taking care of locale specific nuances.Think Austrian vs. Germany vs. Switzerland German.Or UK vs. US vs. AU English.Or even North vs. South States.You can see that at the locale part (e.g. en_UK).

       @Acer #国际化 (#internationalization )是#软件本地化 (#localization )正规流程的第一步，在开发初期就考虑到语序、单复数等差异在后期翻译时可能造成的问题并调整代码
