# Add a new language for translation

The translation process begins by adding a language for translating Whatfix content.

For more information, see the list of [Languages Supported by Whatfix](/studio/docs/languages-supported-by-whatfix).

          **Note:**

          

Only an **Account Manager** can perform the following task. For more information about available roles, see [Whatfix User Roles](/studio/docs/whatfix-user-roles).

Use the following steps to add a language:
