The correct thing to do is replace Id with Identifier (in the en-us file) because abbreviations are not the best for localization. The only advantage that the series of letters i+d have is that they match the series of letters used in the flag --id. But we have localized descriptions that should contain the word identifier, hopefully matching the word that would be used in translating Identifier as a single noun.

Please only update the en-US file. Any changes to other files will be overwritten when the localization team re-processes the localizations.

Otherwise, if the en-US file is already accurate, someone on the engineering team needs to submit a defect to the localization team

Files under Localization folder will be overwritten when we do a localization update, so no changes under Localization folder will take effect.

Is there a way to contribute to the the localization team re-processes ? I just wanted to fix the inconsistency I saw when dealing with winget in different languages. Would you otherwise so kind and give this information to someone on the engineering team ?

Id has also the property of being a combination used in other languages. Identifier would need to be translated again. Maybe it would be best to change the en-us file to Id.
