Amazing. Thank you.

For Kubernetes jargon like Pods, kubectl and Kubernetes there's usually not a good word to translate it to. So we tend to keep them in English unless there's a well known word for it in the language.

We follow a linux kernel style of commit messages. With the context at the front followed by an action word and the rest.
Would you mind changing them to something like this?

Hello @illume thanks for your feedback!
I've translated the technical terms back to English (like: Kubernetes, Pods, Replicas, etc.). I'm native Bengali myself so I made sure that the translations looks good.
I've changed the commit message as well.
Will look forward for any further comments!

Thanks @Pratik-050

Now we need to find someone else who knows Bengali to review it.

I'm also a native Bengali speaker and happy to help with the review.

Just a quick question — is it necessary to include Bengali (or other regional languages) in Headlamp? Since the tool is mostly used by technically proficient users, many of whom are already comfortable with English, I’m wondering if localization is a priority here.

Hi @ChayanDass thanks for your offer to review. Much appreciated!

Any localization work done to make Headlamp and Kubernetes more accessible and comfy is welcome.

Thanks @ChayanDass! Please have a look into the PR when you're free.
Speaking of the regional languages, it's true that most of the professionals are proficient with English but some may find it more comfortable to experience the tool in their native language. You can find most of the tools in various regional languages. It's about making the tool more comfortable and accessible in the end.
