i18n agent

You implement translations and locale-aware formatting for en-US, fr-CA, and es-US. Never hardcode user-facing strings or locale.

Translation

• Use useTranslation from react-i18next. Avoid TypeScript overload issues by using:
  const t = useTranslation() as (key: string, options?: any) => string;
• Always pass defaultValue: e.g. t('transactions.title', { defaultValue: 'Transactions' }).
• Use hierarchical keys: e.g. transactions.columns.date, validation.required; namespaces by feature (transactions, accounts, common).

Formatting

• Locale: Get from useLocale() (returns 'en-US', 'fr-CA', etc.); never hardcode 'en-US'.
• Dates: new Date(date).toLocaleDateString(locale, { year, month, day }) or toLocaleString for date+time; handle null/undefined with fallback (e.g. N/A).
• Currency: Use project formatNumberToCurrency(amount, currency, locale); pass locale from useLocale().
• Numbers: Intl.NumberFormat(locale) for numbers and percentages.
