“Browse” is usually translated as Examinar (see, e.g., Microsoft Terminology)

Here's `lang(es)` in action on the custom file input for a Spanish translation:

{% example html %}
<div class="custom-file">
<input type="file" class="custom-file-input" id="customFileLang" lang="es">
<label class="custom-file-label" for="customFileLang">Seleccionar Archivo</label>

This should be Seleccionar un archivo because: 1) some browsers use the tú treatment and others use usted; the infinitive is neutral in that sense; and 2) Title Case is not used in Spanish.

You'll need to set the language of your document (or subtree thereof) correctly in order for the correct text to be shown. This can be done using [the `lang` attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/lang) on the `<html>` element or the [`Content-Language` HTTP header](https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.12), among other methods.
