Translation and localization

DITA has markup that facilitates translation and localization. This markup includes the @xml:lang attribute, the @dir attribute, and the @translate attribute.

The xml:lang attribute
The @xml:lang attribute specifies the language and optional locale of the content that is contained in an element. The @xml:lang attribute is described in the XML Recommendation.
The dir attribute
The @dir attribute provides instructions to processors about how bidirectional text is rendered.
The translate attribute
The @translate attribute provides information about whether the content of an element should be translated.
