Windows on pseudo-localization
Windows is available in many languages ​​of the world: Russian, English, Ukrainian, Japanese, Chinese and so on. Overall, the list is huge
But there is a version of Windows that "says" on an unusual localization for us.
And so, it looks like this. English words written in specific characters from different languages, but at the same time the words are absolutely readable.
Each text is enclosed in square brackets For example like this: [Hello, world!]
So, now let's i tell you what it is for.
Pseudo-localization is used in beta builds of Windows for testing system translation and for correctness interface work during translation.
As I wrote, these translation changes force the original words seem readable, but include the most problematic characteristics of world languages: different lengths, direction of language and fit into the interface
And yes, here we are testing Windows 10 build 9907 Let's look at one of the beta versions of Windows 10, and into its specific language :)
Setting takes a long time
This assembly immediately contains the program "Hash-ID Spy" and an html file that explains what is the point of this beta build
Almost all applications in the system have been translated.
Yes, there are small flaws here, but it's still this a beta builds
As for me, everything is a bit unusual here :)
And thanks to such assemblies with such a specialized localization, we can see good translation into our favorite (or native) language.
The names of fonts, services, some processes and system folders are not translated here.
And that's all. See you later :)
