## Overview

Unicode CLDR provides key building blocks for software supporting the world's languages.
CLDR data is used by all [major software systems](https://cldr.unicode.org/index#TOC-Who-uses-CLDR-)
(including all mobile phones) for their software internationalization and localization,
adapting software to the conventions of different languages.

The largest changes in this release were the updates to Unicode 16.0, substantial additions of Emoji search keyword data, and ‘upleveling’ the locale coverage.
The most significant changes in this release were:

- Updates to Unicode 16.0 (including major changes to collation),

CLDR includes [data for sorting Han (CJK) characters in radical-stroke order](https://cldr-smoke.unicode.org/spec/main/ldml/tr35-collation.md#File_Format_FractionalUCA_txt).
It used to distinguish traditional and simplified forms of radicals on a higher level than sorting by the number of residual strokes.
Starting with CLDR 46, the CLDR radical-stroke order matches that of the [Unicode Radical-Stroke Index (large PDF)](https://www.unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/charts/RSIndex.pdf).
