Why Figma language is limited to english and chinese?

Hi there! Thanks for sharing your feedback!

Figma currently supports English and Japanese . In the meantime, you can use Google’s Chrome browser and its machine translation to translate Figma into more languages. More information in our Help Center article: here. Hope this helps!

Hi Celine. Thanks.
I don’t want to use Chrome extension.
I can’t understand why a tool like Figma with over than 3 million users each month isn’t already translated.

It would be so much more profitable for everyone if Figma offered a translation, and who knows, you’d attract even more users?
Why not ask your users to help with the translation by making the original file available en_US ?

Do you have an approximate date when you plan to translate it … in French?
Thanks

Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately, not at this moment, but I’d happy to share and give some visibility your feedback to our team for consideration!

In the meantime, do not also forget to vote up your idea (next to the title’s topic). Thank you!

I would also really prefer making the app compatible with multiple languages. Relying on browser translation tools doesn't feel like a good long-term solution to me. Especially since they can't instantly translate new elements, and the translations aren't always accurate—at least not for German.

I also prefer using the app itself as a workspace instead of a browser, so I'd really appreciate it if more translations could be added soon.

As others have already mentioned, I'm sure the community would be happy to help with that.

Another possible idea: adding language variables so users could translate the menus themselves. Just something that came to mind!
