Generating text for resource files

Question

I'm trying to generate text that looks like the following:

[Åđđřęşş Ŀįŉę 1 !!! !!!]

I want this for my default resource file so I can easily identify when a translation is missing.

I'm sure this kind of text generation must have a name that I just don't as the closest thing I could find is String.Normalize which is the reverse of what I'm after.

@LittleBobbyTables: I made that same assumption too, but the answer is accurate I believe. – Patrick Hofman Oct 03 '14 at 14:23
Why downvote? I believe that the question was asking the name of such a method, which in this case is Pseudointernationalization ... – vidriduch Oct 03 '14 at 14:28

@PatrickHofman - yeah, I can see your point. The links in the answer are usually a no-no, though, and that tripped me up. – LittleBobbyTables - Au Revoir Oct 03 '14 at 14:29
