Please contact the maintainer of the language pack and ask where you can help. See [[Translation credits]] for a list of translators. The top name of each language pack is the current language pack maintainer. If you don't receive a response within a reasonable time, please email [mailto:translation@moodle.org translation@moodle.org].
 
Another option is to check whether your language has a community discussion course - see http://moodle.org/course/category.php?id=3 - and if so, post in a forum.

==I'd like to help with translating Moodle 2.0. What do I do?==
 
Please contact the maintainer of the language pack and ask where you can help. See [[Translation credits]] for a list of translators. Once you have agreed on an area of Moodle that you intend to translate, create an account on the [http://lang.moodle.org/ Moodle languages portal] and follow the instructions on the front page.
 
==The month names and days are displayed in English. How can I translate them?==
 
Names of days and months are pulled out of your operating system. The system is configured for Moodle in langconfig.php where you have the strings ''locale'' (for -nix type operating systems) and ''localewin'' (for Windows operating systems) that should point to the right locale on your server. Your server operating system should support the language (= locale should be installed) - see also [http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=79792 Month-name translation problem] for an alternative solution.
