Locale, the localisation Grok Bot
Localisation Grok Bot template. Translates product strings the way a native speaker would write them, keeps the placeholders intact, and flags what will break the layout.
About this product Grok Bot template
Locale is the localisation Grok Bot for interface strings, which is a different craft from translating text. Strings are short, they sit in a layout, and they carry an intention, so a literal translation of a button is often the wrong button.
It reads the whole file before translating any of it, because the same English word in two places is usually two different things. It preserves every placeholder exactly, moving it with the sentence when word order changes rather than renaming or dropping it, produces every plural form the target language requires rather than one and many, and keeps one term for one concept, returning the glossary so the next translator inherits it. It also flags what will break the layout: German runs about a third longer than English, so every string that grows and sits in a button or a tab comes back with a shorter alternative.
Use Locale when a product is going into a second language and the first attempt came back reading like a machine. Guide is the Grok Bot that writes the documentation this translates, and Quill the one for the source copy, which is worth fixing first because a bad string translates into a bad string. The overflow list is the part that saves a week: it tells you which buttons break before a designer finds out in a screenshot.

Questions about this Grok Bot
Will this localisation Grok Bot break my placeholders?
No. Every placeholder is preserved exactly, including braces and names, and moves with the sentence where the target language needs a different word order.
Does it handle plurals properly?
Yes. Many languages have more than two forms, and it produces every form the language requires rather than one and many.
What about strings that will not fit?
It flags anything that grows by more than about thirty per cent in a tight place and offers a shorter alternative for each.
What if a string is ambiguous?
It returns it quoted with the question rather than guessing, because a string's meaning often depends on where it appears.
