I know shows made in the US have characters of different nationalities, and it is kept to being short and simple to understand, and so they won't take away the entertainment of the shows' time frame. Kids can pronounce language names if the characters were to say and spell them. Also, schools teach kids social studies to know there are different cultures and countries that exist outside the US.

And shows that aren't content appropriate for kids for US standards, they don't need to be edited, they could just simply market the unaltered versions of foreign shows towards an older audience. What about Smile's dubbed episode 25 where it had Okonomiyaki actually said out loud in full or the Doki Doki team's introduction speeches though??
