Description

Is there any way to translate current error messages?

It would be nice to have these messages in our native language.

Research direction
Investigate how PapaParse currently generates error messages (likely in functions like ` error` in papaparse.js). Consider externalizing error strings into a separate locale file or object to support translations. Propose a simple i18n approach without adding heavy dependencies. Look at similar libraries for inspiration. The issue lacks maintainer guidance, so start a discussion with a concrete proposal.
