English
English is the shortest of the supported languages in almost every measurement, which is why interfaces designed in English tend to break when translated into anything else.
Written in Latin · West Germanic family
British and American spelling, date order and vocabulary differ enough to matter; choose EN-GB or EN-US explicitly instead of bare EN.
French
French runs fifteen to twenty per cent longer than English and requires non-breaking spaces before high punctuation, which is a typographic rule and not a preference.
Written in Latin · Romance family
The space before ; : ! ? must be a narrow no-break space; a plain space causes the punctuation to wrap onto the next line.
Formality for this pair
Vous and tu are distinct registers; French commercial writing uses vous almost universally.
