When translating these, it is best to find an equivalent cultural reference within your own culture that accurately conveys the meaning of the English reference | At times there will be English content included in Mozilla products or web projects (e.g., marketing campaigns) that makes references to American culture and concepts.

For example, an US citizen might say, "Good job, home run!" A home run is a baseball reference for a successful outcome. An appropriate translation would be an equivalent metaphor within your culture. Using soccer as an example, you might translate "Good job, home run!" into "Good job, nice goal!" in your language. | |||
Also, there are specific Mozilla related concepts and localization, based on projects names and cultures. A person that participate in the organization is known like: "Mozillian", and these concepts had their own localized version. In this case "Mozillian" is translated liked "Mozillero". | |||
Mozilla events names are not localized. E.g: "Mozilla Summit" or "Mozilla All Hands" are events names that we maintained in their original form. | |||
