			== What is String Concatenation? ==
			String concatenation is widely used in software programming. String concatenation is the operation of joining two character strings end-to-end
			For example:
			<pre>String hi = “Hello ” + “World!”;</pre>

			Another example:
			<pre>
			System.out.print(“Hello “);
			System.out.println(“World!”);
			</pre>


			A typical usage is with a variable in the middle of a string:
			<pre>String ua = user +“ is ”+ age + “ years old.”;</pre>

			== Why is String Concatenation an Internationalization Issue? ==
			The strings "is" and " years old." could be externalized into two resources in a resource bundle, for example in a file named resources.properties:
			<pre>
			RES1= years old.
			RES2=Title
			RES3=Navigate
			RES4=is
			</pre>

			If a translator ends up with four segments to translate, the overall sentence is lost. Furthermore, even if the translator could translate it correctly, the word order is different by languages, the grammar is different too. For instance, in French, <i>a person <b>has</b> four years</i>. Without the context of the full sentence, a translator could not guess how "is" will be used.

			For applications which need to execute in different locales, strings which are visible to the user should not be concatenated. Some feedback from Lingoport clients on this particular problem, before being internationalized properly:
			* “We get a lot of questions from our L10N vendor”
			* “Our biggest trouble area is fragmented strings in the resource bundle. At first, my team was just going along happily externalizing […]”
			* “We have a lot of cases where there is a variable in the middle of the string”
			* “We end up with two strings in the resources bundle rather than one string with a token for the variable piece of content”
