A logo in your language.
A logo set in Arabic, Japanese or Turkish has problems an English one never meets: letters that join, characters that stack, accents that clip. Twelve languages, sixty-one real logos, and what to check in each.

The letters themselves change
Arabic letters join, the script reads right to left, and the choice between Naskh and Kufi is a brand decision.
Japanese has three writing systems, and choosing between them is a positioning decision before it is a typographic one.
Hangul is assembled, not spelled.
Chinese characters are built to fill a square, and a two-character name has a rhythm Latin type does not.
Cyrillic looks close enough to Latin to fool a designer, and then it breaks.
Same alphabet as English, plus accents, ligatures and letters that must not be dropped.
German builds long words by joining short ones, and its letters carry marks that collide in tight lockups.
Spanish covers Spain and most of Latin America, which are different visual cultures under one language.
French puts apostrophes inside brand names and treats œ as one letter.
Italian words end in vowels, which gives a wordmark an open, even rhythm.
Portuguese splits between Brazil and Portugal, and it carries more marks than any other Latin language on this list.
Turkish uses the Latin alphabet plus six extra letters, and one of them is a genuine trap.
Indonesian uses the Latin alphabet with no accents, so the design pressure moves to rhythm and length.
How to get a logo right in another language
Write the brand name in the script it should appear in, not a transliteration, and say which style you want: a calligraphic wordmark, a monogram, a symbol with a wordmark, a badge or a clean modern wordmark. Every language page above shows one of each, with the direction behind it.
Then check the result with a native reader. AI image models draw letters well most of the time and wrong some of the time, and a missing dot or accent changes the word. Each page lists the specific letters to check, like the dotless ı in Turkish or the tilde on the Spanish ñ.
