Yeah, Excel does that, it always fascinated me. It was so weird writing =KDYŽ instead of =IF in Excel. Different times, I guess.

Does that get translated if someone else with a different language opens that file?

The best part is that if your version of Excel is German, you can’t write =IF(). You have to use =FALLS().

It’s always fun to google a function and then the translation.

I'm pretty sure it's not FALLS() but WENN(), at least the last time I used Excel.

Could be. I try to avoid Excel. And I believe “wenn” is a wrong translation, whether the function has that name or not.
