# Globalization

Globalization combines message localization with adaptation to specific cultures.

For an overview of globalization in Kendo UI for Vue, see the [globalization overview](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/intl). For component-specific capabilities, see [Globalization Support](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/intl/globalization-support).

## Internationalization

Internationalization applies culture-specific formats to a web application. For details, see the [internationalization overview](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/intl/internationalization) and the [kendo-intl package on GitHub](https://github.com/telerik/kendo-intl).

## Messages

The Toolbar is the only component in the Vue Buttons package that registers built-in messages with the localization service. Its `moreButtonTitle.title`, `prevArrow.title`, and `nextArrow.title` keys translate the overflow-button and scroll-button titles. Register values for these keys with [`loadMessages`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/intl/api/loadmessages), then set the same language on [`LocalizationProvider`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/intl/api/localizationproviderprops). See [Loading Messages](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/intl/localization/loading-messages) for details.

The SplitButton toggle uses the hard-coded English accessible label `Toggle dropdown` and does not look up a localized message. Its [`ariaLabel` prop](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/buttons/api/splitbuttonprops#arialabel) applies to the main button, so `loadMessages` does not translate the toggle label. Text supplied by your application is not translated automatically.

## Right-to-Left Support

The following example demonstrates how to use RTL support with the Buttons.
