Answer 1

I resolved the issue with the workaround.

1. I removed from Nuget all Humanize packages.
2. Follow to the packages directory: C:\Users\USERNAME\.nuget\packages
3. Need to copy files Humanize dll's from next's folders:

• humanizer.core\2.8.26\lib\netstandard2.0 (Humanizer.dll, Humanizer.xml)
• humanizer.core.ru\2.8.26\lib\netstandard2.0 (copy folder "ru" with file - ru\Humanizer.resources.dll)

4. Into my project folder I created CommonResources folder. Then I created Humanize folder into CommonResources and pasted 2 files and "ru" folder to my Humanize.

5. Add references to PCL project yourProject.csproj file on these dll's.

  <ItemGroup> 
    .......
    <Reference Include="Humanizer.Core">
    <HintPath>..\..\CommonResources\Humanizer\Humanizer.dll</HintPath>
  </Reference> 
    <Reference Include="Humanizer.Core.ru">
    <HintPath>..\..\CommonResources\Humanizer\ru\Humanizer.resources.dll</HintPath>
  </Reference>
     ....... 
  <PackageReference Include="Xamarin.Forms" Version="5.0.0.2012" /> 
</ItemGroup> 

After the dll files were added I got localized text into my project.

Thx @polyariz, I can confirm this still works with .NET MAUI, just copy the .dlls to the Resources folder...

and add them to the project via right-click on Dependencies and "Add Project Reference..."
