Abstract

An apparatus and method providing flexible message differentiation of localized terms utilizing a resource bundle generator. In particular, the apparatus and method are accomplished by having a system and method for term localization differentiation. The message differentiation apparatus and method utilize a second key to assist the resource bundle generator in the localization of the input string. The second key should be descriptive and provide some context of the string to be translated. If the string being localized is a message, the second key should characterize the string in the proper context.
