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

Needs native speaker review to confirm if this is the most appropriate term in the context of programming. The script limitations make it hard to assess without a speaker.

Issue breakdown

  • accuracy While 'फलन' (phalan) is a valid translation of 'function' in Hindi/Sanskrit, its rendering in Mahajani is highly ambiguous due to the script's limitations. It's unclear if this accurately conveys the programming concept.
  • specificity Too generic; doesn't specifically relate to programming functions.
