A dynamic natural language translation layer for ruby... an example:

example.rb

require :spaES # <-- Select the stdlib locale
require 'stdlib' # <-- import the stdlib
 
# The above will be automatically done in practice, but it is just listed here
# as an illustration. This is because after this point, you need to use the term
# importar to import.
# As in: importar 'some-library'
 
# Only THIS file uses the function name table in español. Other files and existing libraries
# assuming the original or a different natural language are functionally unaffected. It is
# important to still have the means of collaboration regardless of primary natural language!
 
# File.open("todo.txt", "r+") <-- Error. Constant 'File' not found.
Archivo.abrir("todo.txt", "r+")
 
# puts "hola".start_with?("h") <-- Error.
ponerSarta "hola".comienzaCon?("h")
# puts "hola".start_with?("e")
ponerSarta "hola".comienzaCon?("e")
 
# s = String.new("hola") <-- Error. Constant 'String' not found.
s = Sarta.nuevo("hola")
ponerSarta s.comienzaCon?('ho')
 
# s.upcase!
s.mayúsculas!
 
# s.prepend '¡'
s = s.anexarAntes '¡'
s = s + "!"
 
ponerSarta s
 
# output:
#
# true
# false
# true
# ¡HOLA!

string.rb

# There are also files for File, Integer, Fixnum, etc
# All of the __define, etc names can be generated randomly, so they don't have to be
# in English. This file would likely be machine generated via human-curated input elsewhere.
 
# Translations in español can be a little long as their original names rely on historical
# presence, such as 'printf' or 'puts' being already common abbreviations for 50 years. It is very
# practical that functions in español would have their own abbreviations, but I have longer
# names for ease of reading and more immediately comprehension by a less-familiar reader.
