In our CMS training, this following point was raised. We're not sure if any further action is needed to take on it, please could you review and let us know?

Gerald: Wondering about the 180 max length on carousel and if that limit should differ depending on the languages
Coralie: Gerald, see bottom of
https://www.w3.org/2004/12/testimonial_pr-guidelines.html
{{
100 English words =

170-210 Chinese characters
200-250 Japanese characters
120-130 Arabic words
80-100 Korean characters
}}
(it's a question we had for press release testimonials, in the past, so
we got Xueyuan and Naomi on the case)

Gerald: Coralie 👍

Hi @JuliaSang thanks for spotting this comment and relaying the issue here.

Based on my reading of this Text size in translation article this seems to be more of an issue for very short text phrases, and less so for longer items (sentences or paragraphs).

We might have cases come up where it becomes challenging to squeeze text written in more verbose languages into fields that were sized for English, but maybe we don't need to worry about that until/unless it happens a few times.

So probably no need for further action right now.

If this is taken up again in the future, please note that this impacts all translatable text fields, not just testimonials.
