# Working with languages

Learn how to use languages effectively

> **Info:** **Please note:** By default, your account has only one language. Please contact us to add more languages to your account.

## General points

Before you start working with languages:

-   _If applicable:_
    
    -   **Contact us to unlock additional languages** in your account (the default is 1 language only)
        
    -   **⚠ Tell us your default language!**
        
        -   The default language is the language upon which all translations are based
            
        -   This language is usually the primary language on your packaging
            

-   **Language translations affect most but not all fields** below the language tab
    
    -   For example, icons and images are not “translated”

## Translating languages

There are two options for translating languages:

### “PUSH” translation: From default language into target languages in one step

1.  **Finalise content in your default language**
    
    -   → this is the language displayed on the very left of the tab; in the example above this is English
        
2.  **Press “Translate into all”**
    
    -   This translates and fills any fields that are still **empty** in the target languages
        
    -   **⚠** Caution: If you want to overwrite both empty and filled fields, check “Overwrite existing translations”.
        

### “PULL” translation: Into target language from default language step-by-step

1.  **Navigate to the target language** by selecting the appropriate tab in the tab bar
    
    -   → in the example above this is German
        
2.  **Press “Translate from \[default language\]”**
    
    -   **⚠** Caution: This overwrites all fields in the target language
        

You can also **delete a target language** by pressing “Delete translation”. This clears all fields of the target language and means the Module is unavailable in that language.

You can translate content in two ways:

## Languages on Pages (Products/Media)

If you are on a Page (Product or Media), you can see language information in the “Content” tab…

-   On the “Master data” card at the very top
    
-   On each Module card below
    

If you hover over any language information, a tool tip will give you more details, e.g. which languages are still missing. See screenshot below:

If you open the “Master data” card, it reveals its language settings, allowing you to e.g. translate the Product Title and Product Details.

## Languages on Modules

If you are on a Module, you can see language settings in the “Content” tab.

See screenshot below:

## Previewing languages

To preview language translations, select the desired language in the drop down list above the preview on the right of a Page or Module. See screenshot below:
