NVDA is localized (translated in 70 languages) using GNU gettext.
From NVDA wiki Contributing / Translatable Strings:
For new contributions, this obligation is ensured by the
checkPottest.Still, there are dozens of translatable strings that lack such a comment in code contributed before the creation of this test.
A complete list of these can be found near the top of
tests/checkPot.py.All these strings are already translated in the current 70 languages in which NVDA is available, but the lack for translators comment makes it uselessly harder to add a new language to the list.
As stated by @feerrenrut in #11093 (comment), It would be greatly appreciated if some good willing volunteer took the charge to add all or part of these missing translators comment.
