Use this folder for locale-specific translation guidance that supplements .opencode/agent/translator.md.

The global glossary in translator.md remains the source of truth for shared do-not-translate terms (commands, code, paths, product names, etc.). These locale files capture community learnings about phrasing and terminology preferences.

• One file per locale
• Use lowercase locale slugs that match docs locales when possible (for example, zh-cn.md, zh-tw.md)
• If only language-level guidance exists, use the language code (for example, fr.md)
• Some repo locale slugs may be aliases/non-BCP47 for consistency (for example, br for Brazilian Portuguese / pt-BR)

• Sources: PRs/issues/discussions that motivated the guidance
• Do Not Translate (Locale Additions): locale-specific terms or casing decisions
• Preferred Terms: recurring UI/docs words with preferred translations
• Guidance: tone, style, and consistency notes
• Avoid (optional): common literal translations or wording we should avoid
• If the repo uses a locale alias slug, document the alias in Guidance (for example, prose may mention pt-BR while config/examples use br)

Prefer guidance that is:

• Repeated across multiple docs/screens
• Easy to apply consistently
• Backed by a community contribution or review discussion
