Translation of Ubuntu is coordinated through its web-based translation system: [[https://translations.launchpad.net|Launchpad Translations]]

Launchpad Translations can be used at this address:

 https://translations.launchpad.net

'''Note:''' Launchpad Translations can be used for translating lots of different software. Ubuntu is just one part of that. If you wish to translate Ubuntu, choose the relevant release from the Launchpad Translations homepage.

Frequently asked questions on Launchpad Translations usage can be accessed here:

 * https://help.launchpad.net/FAQ/Translations

You can report any bug or add any feature request for Launchpad Translations using Launchpad Bugs:

 https://bugs.launchpad.net/rosetta

A list of current bugs or feature requests can be found here (please consult before submitting any new report):

 https://bugs.launchpad.net/rosetta. Read also RosettaWishList.

For your offline work you can use programs such as ''POedit'' (universe), ''gtranslator'' (main), or a plain text editor like Gnome Editor - ''gedit'' (main).

We also recommend reading GNOME Translation Project Web Pages

 http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gtp/resources.html

If your language is a new language please read the Translating Ubuntu New Languages page for information on creating a locale, creating an xkb keyboard and selecting fonts so that you can use launchpad.

You can see the translation team list here: https://translations.launchpad.net/+groups/ubuntu-translators

Join the team you are interested in, but take care that it's more QA team than just a translation team. You don't need to join a team to translate Ubuntu, only to improve already existing translations.

If you don't see your team there, please mail open a ticket at https://answers.launchpad.net/rosetta with all information about the language you want to translate into and we will create it for you.
