## Description

Cultural adaptation for translated content. Run AFTER blog-translate completes. Adjusts brand examples, CTAs, legal references, and formality for the target market (German, French, Japanese, Spanish, etc.). Deep cultural adaptation of translated blog posts. Goes beyond translation to swap brand examples, adapt CTAs, substitute legal references, localize statistic sources where possible, and adjust formality (Sie/du, tu/vous, formal/informal). Built-in profiles for DACH, Francophone, Hispanic, and Japanese markets, plus a custom-locale template. Makes content feel locally authored, not translated. Use when user says "localize blog", "blog localize", "cultural adaptation", "adapt for Germany", "adapt for France", "lokalisieren", "localiser", "adaptar".

# Blog Localize, Cultural Deep-Adaptation

Takes a translated blog post and performs cultural adaptation so the result
feels like it was written for the target market, not translated into it.
This is the layer above `blog-translate`: it replaces examples, adjusts
tone, swaps references, and localizes the entire reading experience.

## Key References

- `../blog-translate/references/cultural-adaptation.md`, the shared cultural
  profiles file with substitution tables for DACH, Francophone, Hispanic,
  Japanese, and a custom template. Do not duplicate this file.

## When to Use

- Right after `blog-translate` produces a base translation.
- When existing translated content reads like "translated from English".
- When targeting a specific market, not just a language.
- When content needs local statistics, examples, and brand references.
