Language enabling
(1) Adding support to software for document content in a particular language. In this sense, to enable an application for Japanese means to modify the software so that the user can enter, display, edit, and print text containing Japanese. (2) Modifying software so that it can be localised into a particular language. In this sense, enabling for Japanese means to modify software so that it can display Japanese text correctly in menus, dialogue boxes, and other user-interface elements. Note that in either sense, an enabled product can still have the user interface in English such as when the product is not localized.
