When developing modern web applications, we often find the need to ensure that our language is readable to users who speak and read languages different from our own. To help facilitate this, Yii2 provides built-in support for both internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n). Internationalization is the process of planning and implementing messages and views such that they can be easily adapted into other languages. On the other hand, localization is the process of adapting our applications to a particular language or culture, and including things such as the look and feel of our application to match the accepted presentation of information to speakers of a given language or users in a given region or market. In this chapter, we'll discover how we can use Yii2's built-in features to translate and localize our applications into multiple languages.
