Don’t forget the keyboard shortcuts. Office products would change shortcuts according to the language, so it would be more mnemonic. Ctrl-F for find and Ctrl-B for bold would be reassigned to whatever initials that language had. Fun! /s
Not even the right initials. Most of the actions’ names had the same few initials so they had to find synonyms to use the shortcut for. Search was Ctrl+L (from Locate). In other cases they just used whatever letter was next on the keyboard to the initial that was already in use.
