# Locale Typography Produce typography that belongs to the reader's locale without turning the task into a grammar, translation, or house-style rewrite. ## Workflow 1. Determine the locale from an explicit locale tag, the document's `lang`, product configuration, or the stated audience. Never infer one language from a multilingual country alone. 2. Preserve an established house style when it intentionally differs from the locale default. Preserve punctuation inside verbatim quotations unless the user asks to normalize it. 3. Read [Shared rules](references/shared-rules.md) and the relevant row in the [locale matrix](references/locale-matrix.md). 4. Read only the matching language profile listed below. Load more than one profile only for mixed-language content. 5. For web or application code, also read [implementation](references/implementation.md). Delegate dynamic numbers, units, currency, dates, times, lists, and plurals to locale-aware APIs. 6. Apply changes only to visible prose. Do not alter code, identifiers, URLs, file paths, commands, data keys, attribute values, or copy-paste literals. 7. Review nested quotations, punctuation adjacency, line-breaking hazards, and locale tags before finishing. If the locale remains ambiguous and the choice would visibly change the result, ask for it. For low-risk work, state the assumed locale briefly and continue. ## Language profiles - [German](references/german.md): `de-DE`, `de-AT`, `de-CH`, `de-
