Description of how to find and install a non-English blog in WordPress

Although WordPress displays in U.S. English by default, the software has the built-in capability to be used in any language. The WordPress community has already translated WordPress into many languages, and there are Themes, translation files, and support available in many other languages.

If you want to use WordPress in another language, you can do the following:

    Check below to see what is already available in your language.
    Read Installing WordPress in Your Language to learn how to install files that will transform WordPress so it displays in your language.
    If your language is not listed below, you can also try the WordPress Language File Repository (see this article on the Repository for more information).
    If your language is not available in the Repository or on this page, or if the available translation needs to be improved, you can help! See Translating WordPress for more information.
    There is also a list of localization teams and localization teams currently forming, which you can check to see if a translation is in progress.
    There are also a variety of WordPress Plugins to help create bilingual posts, translations, and change languages between posts. For more information see the Official WordPress Plugin Directory and WordPress Plugin Database.
