That should work fine. The zh_CN.po file contains translations for "error" and "%qD was not declared in this scope" so if the first command uses the translated strings, then the second one should too. It works perfectly for me using a native linux compiler: $ LANG=zh_CN.utf-8 gcc hello.cpp hello.cpp: In function ‘int main()’: hello.cpp:3:1: 错误：‘cout1’在此作用域中尚未声明> 3 | cout1 << "Hello"; | ^~~~~ Are you able to reproduce this yourself, using your build? I would check it, to make sure it isn't just user error, e.g. forgetting to set the locale in the environment for the second command. You should also ask the user how they're setting the locale. i.e. do some basic triage and analysis of the issue report.
