- Consistency: Use the same translation for a term throughout the application
- Context: Consider how the term is used in the application
- Cultural Adaptation: Adapt terms to local conventions when necessary
- Technical Accuracy: Ensure security terms are translated accurately
- Tone: Maintain a professional but straightforward tone
- The term “secret” is central to the application and should be translated consistently
- Regional variations should be respected:
- French: “courriel” (CA) vs “e-mail” (FR)
- German: Informal “du” (DE) vs Formal “Sie” (AT)
- German: “Passphrase” (DE, anglicism) vs “Sicherheitsphrase” (AT, native compound)
- German: “zerstören” standardized across both variants for “burn”
- Technical terms related to security should prioritize accuracy over localization
- UI elements should follow platform conventions for the target language
