Internationalisation

This template has its header name "Shortcut" or "Shortcuts" translated with the {{Shortcut caption}}. The colon, word separators (usually space) and list separator (usually a comma) are translated in {{colon}} and {{comma}}.

The language used (both for text and the box’s floating side) is by default the language of the current page, but it can be overridden using the |uselang=language code parameter.
