Why Linguist for software localization
Products feel natively built in each market—not just translated strings.
Engineering-ready
Familiar with i18n frameworks and resource formats to reduce dev rework.
Launch experience
Multi-region releases with timezone, compliance and store review copy.
Continuous updates
Incremental translation and TM reuse to control long-term cost.
Linguists + testers
Native translators and LQA testers for language and functional quality.
Resource formats
Compatible with common dev toolchains and sprint cadence.
Industries
B2B SaaS, consumer apps and embedded software experience.
Project Preparation
The following information helps accurately assess scope, timelines, and quotation.
Source Files
Provide software resource files (JSON, RESX, XML, PO, Strings, YAML, etc.).
Target Languages
Specify target locales and regional variants (e.g. en-US, es-ES, zh-TW).
Purpose & Audience
Clarify application context (Mobile App, Enterprise SaaS, Desktop) and user profile.
Terminology & References
Provide UI glossaries, variable syntax rules (%s, {count}), and screen mockups.
Format & Timeline
Confirm resource file formats, staging build testing schedules, and release deadlines.
Software Localization Engineering Workflow
Variable protection, pseudo-localization pre-flight, and live build LQA.
Deliverables
- Validated target resource files (JSON / RESX / PO / Strings)
- Automated placeholder & syntax QA verification report
- Linguistic Quality Assurance (LQA) bug log with screenshots
- Software UI terminology glossary and abbreviation guidelines
Prerequisites & Scope Notes
- Hardcoded Strings: Strings concatenated in code logic must be externalized into resource files
- Pluralization Syntax: ICU MessageFormat or plural forms require parser alignment
- LQA Test Environment: Staging builds, test accounts, and user journey scripts required for deep testing
- Hotkey Mapping: Keyboard accelerator key re-mapping rules to be agreed with dev lead
Software UI Resource Localization Sample
Demonstrating SaaS control panel JSON resource variable protection and length fitting.
{ "dashboard.nodes.alert": "Alert: {count} active server nodes exceeding memory threshold of {limit}%." }
{ "dashboard.nodes.alert": "警告:{count} 个活跃服务器节点的内存使用率已超出阈值 {limit}%。" }
| UI Key & Source String | Target Chinese Copy | Engineering Rule |
|---|---|---|
| memory threshold | Memory Utilization Threshold | Context Precision: Clarifies utilization threshold to avoid ambiguity |
| {count}, {limit} | {count}, {limit} | Variable Locking: Preserves placeholder tokens and syntax flawlessly |
| active server nodes | Active Server Nodes | Standard Cloud IT Term: Enforces platform-wide consistency |
Cloud Distributed Cluster Console UI Table
Service: Software Localization · Format: JSON Resource File
Variable Safety
Strict preservation of {count} and {limit} tokens to prevent runtime crash.
UI Pixel Fitting
Concise phrasing to prevent truncation within fixed-width dashboard panels.
Terminology Alignment
Synchronized with backend error codes and developer documentation.
Enterprise RESTful Translation API & CI/CD Pipeline
