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

Using 'بِ' (bi) which is a rendering of 'bì' (as/like) is a more versatile and accurate translation of 'as' in a programming context, covering both aliasing and type casting scenarios.

Issue breakdown

  • accuracy While attempting to represent 'alias', the transliteration is overly literal and doesn't capture the common usage of 'as' in programming (e.g., type casting).
