Abstract
Drupal is developed and used by an international community. Therefore, it supports localization by default. Localization is the replacement of strings in the user interface with translated strings appropriate for the user’s locale. In this chapter, we’ll see how to enable localization and how to selectively replace Drupal’s built-in strings with strings of our own. Then, we’ll look at full-fledged translations and learn how to create, import, and export them.
