When this model fits
Practical guidance. Consider this model when internal manuals or support material need translation across several locales. Build a review set that includes terminology, lists, measurements and sentences whose meaning depends on nearby text. Choose the exact locale when regional wording matters. The model name does not imply a small memory requirement: plan deployment around the full checkpoint and chosen precision, as well as active computation.
