    Hii Yan He ,

     yes as you said object itdentification is language specific and testcomplete recognizes on screen objects by namming them as per the language set on your AUT(application under test).

    for eg: a simple toolbar button in english might be mapped as

    toolbarbutton.clickitem("speichern") --> in German where as in english it will be mapped as toolbarbutton.clickitem("save")

    so the answer is yes it does support multilingual application . but if you want just refer to this post it might help
