German

German compounds nouns into single words and puts finite verbs at the end of subordinate clauses, so translated strings run roughly ten to thirty-five per cent longer than the English source.

Script: Latin · Family: West Germanic

Compound nouns overflow narrow buttons and table headers; test the German build at your smallest breakpoint before release.

Norwegian (Bokmål)

Norwegian Bokmål is one of two written standards for Norwegian and permits several spellings for many words, so consistency within a product matters more than choosing the single correct form.

Script: Latin · Family: North Germanic

Bokmål and Nynorsk are different written standards; content translated into Bokmål is not automatically acceptable to a Nynorsk audience.

Formality in this pair

De as a formal address is archaic; formality: more yields a polite register rather than a separate pronoun.
