 ## [Unreleased]

 ### Fixed
 - **Italian locale was ~51% Spanish.** `src/data/it.json` had been built from `es.json` and only partially re-translated — 632 of its long strings were byte-identical Spanish, and the `_protected` brand map mistranslated `Claude → Claudio`, `Anthropic → Antropico`, `Claude Code → Codice Claudio`, silently breaking runtime brand-term restoration for Italian (our #1 install market). Re-translated every contaminated string from the English source via the same Google Translate endpoint the extension uses, restored brand/technical terms to canonical English, and rebuilt `_protected` with the correct Italian wrong-forms. Italian↔Spanish overlap is now 0.1% (parity with the other 10 locales). (#166, #167)
 - **Protected-term restoration corrupted correct CJK prose.** Across ko/ja/zh-CN/zh-TW, common words were mapped as brand "wrong-forms" (클라우드→Claude, 인류→Anthropic, 企业→Enterprise, …), so `restoreProtectedTerms` rewrote correct translations into wrong English (e.g. "클라우드 컴퓨팅" → "Claude 컴퓨팅"). Removed the ambiguous common-word wrong-forms; intended brand restoration (클로드→Claude, etc.) still works. (#172)
