Swedish

Swedish compounds nouns into single words and has a common and a neuter gender that determine article and adjective forms, which makes interpolated nouns risky.

Written in Latin · North Germanic family

Failing to compound is a visible error: "kund tjänst" instead of "kundtjänst" reads as broken Swedish, not as a typo.

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.
