+## Localisation
+
+The `crossref:` keys above override caption titles and reference prefixes for the current document and are language-independent.
+For locale-aware overrides, set the corresponding `crossref-{type}-title` and `crossref-{type}-prefix` keys under `language:` instead.
+These keys plug into Quarto's localisation system, can be scoped per target language, and can live in a project-level `_language.yml` file.
+
+For example, the Spanish equivalent of the snippets above is:
+
+``` yaml
+---
+title: "Mi Documento"
+lang: es
+language:
+  crossref-fig-title: "Figura"
+  crossref-tbl-title: "Tabla"
+  crossref-fig-prefix: "fig."
+  crossref-tbl-prefix: "tbl."
+---
+```
+
+The same `language:` mechanism applies to callouts and to [custom cross-reference kinds](cross-references-custom.qmd).
+See [Cross-Reference Titles and Prefixes](language.qmd#cross-reference-titles-and-prefixes) for the full set of supported keys and the per-language subkeys pattern.

+## Localisation
+
+Custom cross-reference kinds inherit the same localisation pattern as built-in floats.
+A custom kind with `key: vid` is localised by setting `crossref-vid-title` and `crossref-vid-prefix` under `language:`:
+
+``` yaml
+---
+lang: es
+language:
+  crossref-vid-title: "Vídeo"
+  crossref-vid-prefix: "Vídeo"
+crossref:
+  custom:
+    - kind: float
+      reference-prefix: Video
+      key: vid
+---
+```
+
+The per-language subkeys form also works, which is useful when a single project is rendered in more than one language:
+
+``` yaml
+language:
+  es:
+    crossref-vid-prefix: "Vídeo"
+  fr:
+    crossref-vid-prefix: "Vidéo"
+```
+
+See [Cross-Reference Titles and Prefixes](language.qmd#cross-reference-titles-and-prefixes) for the full pattern.

 ## PDF Output
 
 If your output format is `pdf` you'll also need to specify `latex-env`, a name to be used for the float environment wrapped around the element in the intermediate TeX. For example, to use the custom video reference type you could add `latex-env: video`:

+### Cross-Reference Titles and Prefixes
+
+The same mechanism applies to cross-reference labels.
+Any key of the form `crossref-{type}-title` or `crossref-{type}-prefix` can be set under `language`, where `{type}` is a built-in float (`fig`, `tbl`, `lst`), a theorem environment (`thm`, `lem`, `cor`, `prp`, `cnj`, `def`, `exm`, `exr`), a callout (`nte`, `tip`, `wrn`, `imp`, `cau`), or a [custom cross-reference kind](cross-references-custom.qmd).
+
+For floats and theorem environments, `crossref-{type}-prefix` falls back to `crossref-{type}-title` when omitted.
+
+For example, to localise figure, table, and equation labels in a Spanish document:
+
+``` yaml
+---
+title: "Mi Documento"
+lang: es
+language:
+  crossref-fig-title: "Figura"
+  crossref-tbl-title: "Tabla"
+  crossref-eq-prefix: "Ecuación"
+---
+```
+
+The pattern above also works for cross-reference keys:
+
+``` yaml
+---
+title: "My Document"
+lang: es
+language:
+  es:
+    crossref-fig-title: "Figura"
+  fr:
+    crossref-fig-title: "Figure"
+---
+```
+
+For per-document overrides that do not depend on `lang`, see [Cross-Reference Options](cross-reference-options.qmd).
