Localization
The template is localized through a combination of methods. The original method are subtemplates with translations. For the noun terms and grammar these subtemplates are the following: العربية | català | čeština | dansk | Deutsch | Ελληνικά | English | Canadian English | español | eesti | suomi | français | galego | עברית | magyar | italiano | 日本語 | македонски | Plattdüütsch | Nederlands | norsk bokmål | polski | português | română | русский | sicilianu | slovenčina | slovenščina | српски / srpski | svenska | Kiswahili | vèneto | Tiếng Việt | 中文（简体） | 中文（繁體） | +/- . Translations for adjective terms are on ".../adjectives" subpages of those pages.
If no translation is found for a noun term on these pages the templates looks for a translation at Wikidata item labels. The corresponding Wikidata items are looked up at Module:Technique/WikidataLUT. For cases/languages where no further grammatical information is needed this is the preferred translation method. This applies to English for example. That is why Template:Technique/en does not contain translations for many supported terms.
