Kialaon Lessons From Linguistics: i18n Best Practices for Front-End Developers

> The order of the words is hardcoded, with “added” preceding the date. This would be incorrect in many languages, from Dutch (“1 januari toegevoegd”)

This is simply not true. Since English and Dutch are both Germanic languages they largely work the same way. Saying "Toegevoegd: 1 januari" would be just fine. By using "1 januari toevoegd" you're syntactically changing the sentence.

Kialaon The UX of Paid Journalism

This is why in the Netherlands we have a law that says you must be able to cancel in the same way you entered into the subscription. Did you take out the subscription online? Then you must also be able to cancel it online.
