#### 15.1.19 locale_dir

If this variable is set, it names the directory where translation files may be found (see gettext), usually `/boot/grub/locale`. Otherwise, internationalization is disabled.

`grub-mkconfig` (see Simple configuration handling) will set a reasonable default for this variable if internationalization is needed and any translation files are available.
