AI translates the explanation and quiz text while preserving code and answer scoring.

Unlike Unix shells (which pass text streams), PowerShell passes rich .NET objects through pipes (`|`).

powershell
Get-Process | Where-Object { $_.CPU -gt 10 } | Select-Object Name, CPU, WorkingSet

Cmdlets follow standard `Verb-Noun` naming (`Get-Service`, `Set-Item`, `New-Item`, `Restart-Service`).
