Did you see that new game they released?

Yeah, but I heard it's still unlocalized for our region.

I know, right? Hopefully, they fix the unlocalized issues soon.

Synonyms & Antonyms

Root Explanation

Unlocalized → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "localized" (from Latin "localis", meaning pertaining to a place, and the suffix "-ized", meaning to make or become). The word "unlocalized" means not made specific to a particular place or not confined to a location.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') being added to 'specific to a place' ('localized') — that's why unlocalized means not tied to any specific location.
