* **German** de-de
* **Spanish** es-es
* **French** fr-fr
* **Indonesian** id
* **Dutch** nl-nl
* **Polish** pl-pl
* **Japanese** ja-jp
* **Swedish** sv-se
* **Turkish** tr-tr
* **Arabic** ar
* **Russian** ru-ru
* **Portuguese** pt-br
* **Romanian** ro
* **Italian** it
* **Chinese** (Simplified) zh-cn
* **Chinese** (Traditional) zh-tw
* **Hungarian** hu
* **Vietnamese** vi
* **Korean** ko

## Switching between languages

Switching the default plugin language is a very simple process. Simply, change the `language` setting in the `config.yml` to any of language included codes ([**Included Languages**](https://ae.advancedplugins.net/general-information/languages#included-languages), e.g. `en-us`, `id`, `nl-nl`) and restart your server.

```yaml
# Change default messages language. You can modify all messages in AdvancedEnchantments `locale` folder.
# Read more here: https://ae.advancedplugins.net/general-information/languages
language: 'en-us'
```

## Editing locale file messages

Editing the default messages from locale files is very easy. Open the `locale` folder in the `AdvancedEnchantments` folder, then find your assigned language file (default `en-us.yml`) and start editing there.

## Creating custom locale files

AE also supports creating your own language files. To do so, simply copy-paste one of the default locale files, rename it to the LCID string of the language you're translating to ([List of LCID strings](https://www.science.co.il/language/Locale-codes.php)). Then, follow the step above, inserting the LCID string of the language you just translated. If you would like to submit your translation to be included in the plugin, join our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/GzdQdMw), create a ticket, and send a [Pastebin](https://pastebin.com/) link containing the contents of your file.
