Latvian

Latvian has seven cases and two genders, and it adapts foreign proper nouns to its own morphology, so brand names may legitimately appear with Latvian endings attached.

Written in Latin · Baltic family

The zero plural takes a distinct form; a naive one-or-other plural produces wrong text for counts of zero.

German

German compounds nouns into single words and puts finite verbs at the end of subordinate clauses, so translated strings run roughly ten to thirty-five per cent longer than the English source.

Written in Latin · West Germanic family

Compound nouns overflow narrow buttons and table headers; test the German build at your smallest breakpoint before release.
