Dutch
Dutch compounds nouns like German but keeps a simpler case system, and it runs roughly ten to twenty per cent longer than English in running text.
Written in Latin · West Germanic family
The digraph ij is a single letter for capitalisation: IJsland, not Ijsland. Title-casing routines get this wrong by default.
American 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.
Formality for this pair
American English does not distinguish formal from informal address, so the formality parameter is accepted but has no effect.
