Fun #GameDev fact, especially for #IndieDev, if you're not multilingual: You can easily test localization before you have all your translations set up by using pig latin!
1) It's super easy to programmatically convert your native language to a "pig-latinized" version.
2) It's super easy to spot text that isn't localized when everything else is pig latin
3) You can still easily decipher it without having to know another language
