# Unofficial Sodium Translations



Unofficial Sodium Translations



This repository hosts unofficial translations for [**Sodium**](https://github.com/CaffeineMC/sodium-fabric), a Minecraft mod designed to improve frame rates and reduce micro-stutter. Please see [the FAQ](#FAQ) for **F**requently **A**sked **Q**uestions and supplimentary information about the project.



## Installation



All translations in this repository are available as a resource pack, which you can install like any other resource pack. Simply grab the latest release and put it into your resource pack folder. 



**Download: [Modrinth](https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/translations-for-sodium/versions) | [CurseForge](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/translations-for-sodium/files) | [GitHub](https://github.com/Madis0/sodium-fabric-translations/releases/latest/download/SodiumTranslations.zip)**



### Keeping up to date



- [Modrinth App](https://modrinth.com/app) and [Prism Launcher](https://prismlauncher.org/) can directly install and update Sodium and this pack

- [CurseForge Launcher](https://www.curseforge.com/download/app) can directly install and update this pack, but Sodium must be installed manually

- [Modpacks that include this pack](https://legacy.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/translations-for-sodium/relations/dependents?filter-related-dependents=6) can manage the updating for you, as long as you keep the modpack itself up to date



## Translating



**By submitting translations, you are agreeing to have them licensed under the [Creative Commons Zero (CC0)](https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/) license.**



You can contribute to the translation effort on our Crowdin [project page](https://crowdin.com/project/sodium-fabric)! First you'll need to [register](https://accounts.crowdin.com/register) a Crowdin account if you haven't already. Translators are able to **translate** (submit a translation for an untranslated phrase), **suggest** (propose a better translation compared to an existing one), or **vote** (vote up or down the quality of a translation).



Please note that new versions will be created **every Saturday if there are changes**. If you don't see the most recent translations, please check back later for a new release.



For more information on using Crowdin, please see their "[Intro For Volunteer Translators](https://support.crowdin.com/for-volunteer-translators/)" support page.



## FAQ



### Can I include this in my CurseForge/Modrinth/packwiz/whatever modpack?



Yes! Everyone can do it, don't need any special permission.



### Current translation is wrong or I don't know how to translate it



Please [open an issue on the phrase](https://support.crowdin.com/online-editor/#reporting-issues).



### My language is not listed or I want to become a proofreader



Please [request it on Crowdin Discussions](https://crowdin.com/project/sodium-fabric/discussions).



#### Will you translate Sodium into minority or fictional languages?



Currently this project will not include fictional (e.g. Esperanto), "joke" (e.g. LOLCAT) or minority languages (speakers less than 1 million or insufficient translations in [official Minecraft project](https://crowdin.com/project/minecraft)). The reason is simple - these languages are easy to abuse and hard to proofread.



### Where can I find the original language file?



At the moment, [dev/stable branch en_us.json](https://github.com/CaffeineMC/sodium-fabric/blob/dev/src/main/resources/assets/sodium/lang/en_us.json) is used, along with some older strings.



### Why does this exist?



Sodium used to have a translation platform. It was announced and it stayed around for about 2 years, but the translations on it were not used in the mod. After that, [amnotbananaama](https://github.com/amnotbananaama), a moderator in CaffeineMC Discord, created and maintained this repo and Crowdin. That project became stagnant as well, as it was easy for users to contribute, but not use the translations in-game. Then myself and [Reese](https://github.com/FlashyReese) came around and made it sustainable, with some help from the Discord user piuvas. Now everyone can contribute easily and download the languages as a resource pack :)



### Will Sodium ever get translations built-in to the mod?



Seems so, [as an issue was made for it](https://github.com/CaffeineMC/sodium-fabric/issues/2304) by jellysquid3. It is currently unclear if it will include these translations and if it will happen on Crowdin, but we are open to giving full access to this project if jellysquid3 so decides.
