Read Original

This technical article investigates why an IValueConverter in a WPF/Silverlight app receives an 'en-US' culture parameter despite system settings being 'Portuguese (Portugal)'. It explores the FrameworkElement.Language property's role, demonstrates the issue with code, and explains the underlying binding mechanism for culture resolution in XAML applications.
