+# Internationalization / Localization Settings
+
+## Locale
+All locale files live under `config/locales`. Here is where you can add locale data as JSON key-value pairs. The name of the file should match the language that you are supporting, which allows for automatic language detection based on the user request.
+
+Here is an example locale stringfile for the Spanish language (`config/locales/es.json`):  
+```json
+{
+    "Hello!": "Hola!",
+    "Hello %s, how are you today?": "¿Hola %s, como estas?",
+}
+```
+## Usage
+Locales can be accessed in controllers/policies through `res.i18n()`, or in views through the `__(key)` or `i18n(key)` functions.
+Remember that the keys are case sensitive and require exact key matches, e.g.
+
+```ejs
+<h1> <%= __('Welcome to PencilPals!') %> </h1>
+<h2> <%= i18n('Hello %s, how are you today?', 'Pencil Maven') %> </h2>
+<p> <%= i18n('That\'s right-- you can use either i18n() or __()') %> </p>
+```
+
+## Configuration
+Localization/internationalization config can be found in `config/i18n.js`, from where you can set your supported locales.
