13. What is localization?
Localization is the process of modifying a product (software, website and relevant documentation) for an audience in a different country, culture, or region of the world. Localization is more than translation because it involves cultural adaptation and requires knowledge of the local culture. Localization may also require changes to the software product itself, above and beyond language translation.

What is globalization?
Globalization or internationalization is the act of redesigning a document or software product for general markets beyond the boundaries of one nation, not considering adaptation for a specific cultural/legal locale. If you are taking your product to another country, you need to consider both internationalization and localization.
