INTRODUCTION

The Variable translation module, part of the Internationalization
(https://www.drupal.org/project/i18n) package, allows the user to translate text
and settings that are stored in Drupal as variables. These variables include
text such as 'site name' and 'site slogan', as well as settings like 'Default
front page' and 'Default 404 page'.
