In computing, internationalization and localization are means of adapting computer software to different languages, regional differences and technical requirements of a target market (locale).

Internationalization is the process of designing a software application so that it can potentially be adapted to various languages and regions without engineering changes.

Localization is the process of adapting internationalized software for a specific region or language by adding locale-specific components and translating text.

Localization (which is potentially performed multiple times, for different locales) uses the infrastructure or flexibility provided by internationalization (which is ideally performed only once, or as an integral part of ongoing development).

A content management system (CMS) is a computer application that supports the creation and modification of digital content.

It is often used to support multiple users working in a collaborative environment.

Translation is the communication of the meaning of a source-language text by means of an equivalent target-language text.

While interpreting—the facilitating of oral or sign-language communication between users of different languages—antedates writing, translation began only after the appearance of written literature.

There exist partial translations of the Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh (ca.

2000 BCE) into Southwest Asian languages of the second millennium BCE.

Video game localization refers to the process of transforming video game software and hardware for preparation to be imported and sold in a new region, usually a different country.

Although translating the text assets is a large part of localization, the process includes any changes made to a game, including altering art assets, creating new packaging and manuals, recording new audio, transforming hardware, cutting out whole portions of the game due to differing cultural sensitivities, and even adding sections to replace cut content.

Instrument landing system localizer (short: localizer [LOC or LLZ]) is a system of horizontal guidance in the instrument landing system, which is used to guide aircraft along the axis of the runway.
