Language selection and application within a computing environment are often distributed over and differently applied by the operating system and various applications, leading to additional administration, inconsistencies in the user experience based on different language feature implementations among different applications; and increased cost and redundancy in developing language features for different applications. Presented herein are techniques for configuring a device with an application language library that centralizes the selection of languages by the user, and that provides a wide variety of language features (e.g., text translation, user interface adaptation, and data formats) to the applications and operating system. The application language library may also enable a multilingual user to select multiple languages; may apply a selection logic to choose a suitable language for each invocation of the application language library; and may enable the user to configure the selection among the languages for various types and instances of invocations. |
