The way the translation works is that there are two text strings in the language files.

The first string is the key and the rest of the line is the value (the translated text). Upon translation, you're going to need to find the latest list of translation keys.

Public Translations

If a string is not translated, it will by default use the English string instead.

Contributing

Where do I find the language files?

All language files are located in your [lfs_folder]/data/language.

Where do I find the latest translation keys?

All translation keys and status of the current translation can be found on the LFS Public Translations.

Where can I submit my changes?

Changes to language packs are submitted to the Language Packs section on the LFS Forum.

Each translation also has one or more assigned translators, who can edit the translations using the translation web interface. If you think the current assigned translators are inactive and you could become one of them, try contacting the LFS developers.
