How to Add a Language in Magento

Most text strongly encoded on your store pages can be changed immediately in another language. The language variable actually refers to a different translation that translates word into word but uses the whole shop used throughout the store. Changes include changing headings, labels, buttons and links like “my sedimentary” and “my account”. You can use the inline translation tool to continue the text in the interface.
Language packages under “Translation and Localization” are found in the Magento Market. New extensions are on the market continuously, so check again!
