Slovak

Slovak is close enough to Czech that speakers understand each other, yet different enough in orthography and vocabulary that reusing Czech text is immediately recognisable as a shortcut.

Written in Latin · West Slavic family

The rhythmic law shortens a long vowel after a long syllable; text assembled from parts often violates it.

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.
