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

'Kizabu' (from 'zabula' - to store, to keep) better captures the idea of a place where something is held. It's a more neutral term for a variable, encompassing both mutable and immutable cases. It focuses on the storage aspect, which is fundamental to the concept.

Issue breakdown

  • accuracy While 'yela' (to change) is related to the concept of a variable, 'muyeli' feels overly focused on *changeability* rather than the core idea of a named storage location. It leans too heavily into mutability.
  • specificity Not specific enough to the programming concept. Could be confused with a mutable variable specifically.
