Across locales

What each covering migration carries for this concept, per locale — the whole-brain view, not filtered by your language. Forms are the migration's leaf values (pre-transform, pre-human-verdict); a locale without a form falls back to canonical English. Chips open that locale's live docs page for this term.

Explanation

Flagging for native speaker review. While a phonetic rendering is attempted, the concept of 'boolean' is abstract. A more culturally relevant term or a standardized loanword might be better. Keeping existing for now pending review.

Issue breakdown

  • accuracy Phonetic rendering is unclear; 'boolean' is a specific logical type. Javanese doesn't have a direct equivalent.
  • cultural Direct transliteration may not be culturally appropriate for a core programming concept.
  • specificity Too broad; doesn't convey the 'true/false' nature.
