Description
We would like to localize ReSpec in Italian, but it is not very clear to us how to operate; we are proceeding in reverse-engineering mode, going to locate the strings we want to localize.
Describe the solution you'd like
Create a new article in the ReSpec guide that explains the process of localizing ReSpec to different languages. This guide should cover:
- Overview of ReSpec's localization capabilities
- Step-by-step instructions on how to add a new language
- Explanation of key files and structures involved in localization
- Best practices for maintaining translations
- How to contribute translations back to the main ReSpec project
Can you or your organization fund the work or help with development?
We do not know ReSpec in depth, but we can set up a draft list, based on our findings.

Research direction
Start by reading the existing ReSpec guide and tracing the localization structures and strings mentioned in the issue. Document the localization capabilities, language-addition process, key files, maintenance practices, and translation contribution workflow. Done means the guide gives newcomers a complete, step-by-step path for adding and maintaining a language.
