User Permissions Needed
To add or edit languages:	Manage Translation

Note The Manage Translation permission is enabled by default in the System Administrator profile.

Before adding a language for translation, you must select languages for your org and enable Translation Workbench.

From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Translation Language Settings, and then select Translation Language Settings.
To activate a new language, click Add. Or to change an existing supported language, click Edit.
If adding a language, choose a language.
To make the entered translations available to your users, select Active. Users can change their personal language anytime, regardless of whether it's active in the Translation Workbench. Selecting Active makes the translations available to the users in that language.
We recommend that you don't make a language active until the translators have translated all values.
Note If you installed a managed package that includes translations, those translated values appear to users regardless of whether the language is active on the Translation Language Settings Setup page.To override metadata translations delivered by a managed package for custom objects, see Override Translations in Second-Generation Managed Packages and Unlocked Packages.
To assign translators for this language, select them from the Available List, and click Add. If you don't see the member that you want to add, enter keywords in the search box, and click Find.
Important Ensure that all translators have the View Setup and Configuration permission so that they can begin translating. Users can only translate languages that they're assigned to.
Save your changes.
