Research direction

Start by reviewing the website's existing multilingual routing and deployment configuration, then identify the supported locales and how browser language tags or visitor region could be handled. Done means agreeing on the locale-selection behavior and implementing it for both browser language and IP-based redirection without disrupting existing site URLs.
