Hi, I’ve finished the translation recently added. When I click the Export link of po or moMO files MO, or Machine Object is a binary data file that contains object data referenced by a program. It is typically used to translate program code, and may be loaded or imported into the GNU gettext program. This is the format used in a WordPress install. These files are normally located inside .../wp-content/languages/ file, the content shows up on the browser rather than downloading them. Any changes recently? or something wrong? All the browsers show same result.

I wonder if there is any role or ability to reply to somebody’s request. My reply was shown right after I wrote before. But now my reply is waiting for moderation and I can’t see it right away. I think my activity is limited recently.
This page is under the “Get involved”. On weekends the requests or questions are not answered by someone right away. So I wanted to get involved as much as I know.

Each language will have its own PO file, for example, for French there would be a fr_FR.po file, for german there would be a de_DE.po, for British English there might be en_GB.po. in the original languages folder into .mo files, I can see all Korean menus. So, Please add the language files after converting again. Thanks in advance.
