Returns information about the client locale.

locale = GetLocale();

Description Edit

The locale is what makes it possible to know what language the interface is using and thus determine which specific code is going to be executed in a localized addon.

Typically, this is used in a GetLocale block:

Example Edit

if (GetLocale() == "frFR") then
    -- things for the french client
else
    -- for the rest, usually english since it's the default language
end
