This is the subset of translation known as localisation; there may be multiple ways to translate a particular word or phrase (such as whether your last meal of the day is tea or dinner ). It&#8217;s up to you how you approach this, whether your chosen tone of voice is more casual or more professional, or whether a native speaker would tend to favour one over another.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-light-blue-background-color has-background is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-8cf370e7 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer wp-container-content-16d1eb73\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add AI to your toolbox<\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer wp-container-content-16d1eb73\"><\/div>\n<p>As with all Spotler AI tools, you don&#8217;t have to use Mail+&#8217;s generative AI if you don&#8217;t want to.
