| Locales are managed via our [crowdin](https://crowdin.com/project/gitea).   | ||||
| You can override a locale by placing an altered locale file in `custom/options/locale`.   | ||||
| Gitea's default locale files can be found in  the [`options/locale`](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/tree/master/options/locale) source folder and these should be used as examples for your changes.   | ||||

 | ||||
| To add a completely new locale, as well as placing the file in the above location, you will need to add the new lang and name to the `[i18n]` section in your `app.ini`. Keep in mind that Gitea will use those settings as **overrides**, so if you want to keep the other languages as well you will need to copy/paste the default values and add your own to them. | ||||
