Danish term or phrase: landversioneres
In a document for internal use about new products. Furniture manufacturer.

It shows up alongside new product names in the sentence:

Skal landeversioneres
Michael Purvis
English translation:adapt to country versions
Explanation:
It's a (very) constructed and uncommon term, basically meaning that some text or screen interface needs to be adapted from one language/country to another.
So "skal landeversioneres" would translate to "must be adapted to country versions"
