Strings and languages

The words in a .yoke file are US English, the first language. Labels, help text, empty states, confirmations, validation messages, the app name, the tagline, entity names, plurals, and page titles are catalog strings. A platform operator translates the catalog. A workspace admin can replace any translation for their workspace, including the US English wording.

Enum options and workflow states translate their display text. The identifier in the file is what is stored: paid stays paid on the record, and people see "Paid", or whatever that word has been translated to.

Other languages fall back to the US English string until a translation exists. People choose a language from the account menu. The choice is saved to the account.
