Venetian language is spoken as a mother tongue by 8mln people in the World (5mln in North-Eastern Italy, other 3mln people in Slovenia, Croatia, Mexico and Brazil). Other million people understand Venetian as language of their parents and/or grandparents also in Australia, Canada, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, France, Belgium. 4. Many other projects have opened for venetian language. Some are LibreOffice: [https://vec.libreoffice.org/](https://vec.libreoffice.org/) or Telegram for all platforms: [http://t.me/setlanguage/venetian](http://t.me/setlanguage/venetian) but there’re many other I’m working with. 5. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/890bd890338f9b6a17143a65ac10a20410e135583d95106bb09f20d91f66afe2? s=32&d=mm&r=g) 6.

Hi [@codazeveneto](https://profiles.wordpress.org/codazeveneto/) It’s been quite a while since you made your request. Everything around WordPress is powered by volunteer efforts and, unfortunately, preparing new localesLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/) is one of the things that go relatively slowly. 8. Before we continue on this route, I want to ask you a few things. 9. It takes a team and commitment to translate and maintain a localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/). Usually, at least 2-3 people are needed in order to ensure continuity in the project. The initial translation effort to translate WordPress coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. is around 7500 stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. (some of them quite long). All of this needs to be completely translated before a localized version will be created. And after this there are updates several times a year, where you’ll need to catch up. 10. If this user is actually an organization, then we strongly suggest that each individual contributor instead registers their user-id and contribute from them. 11. In addition to this: In order for site visitors to see the site in their own language, you also need to translate themes and plugins. 12. If you want to become a locale manager and GTEGeneral Translation Editor A General Translation Editor (often referred to as GTE) is a person, who has global access to validate strings on **all projects for a specific locale.** (see [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/rosetta/roles-and-capabilities/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/rosetta/roles-and-capabilities/)) then we request that you supply a bit more information in your profile ( [https://profiles.wordpress.org/me](https://profiles.wordpress.org/me) while logged-in) and that you join the global SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform [https://slack.com/](https://slack.com/).

One more thing. The “Site description” should be “WordPress in xxx language” in your own language. Can you please provide that stringString A string is a translatable part of the software.
