Do You Speak PrestaShop? – June 2023 Edition

Contributing to PrestaShop is not only about the code, it’s also about taking part in the PrestaShop translation project! This report will tell you how the software translations evolved in June.
Project news
🌍 Translating the PrestaShop documentation
If you didn’t know, you can help translate the PrestaShop 8 documentation into your own language! For now, the PrestaShop 8 docs are only available in English and French, but if you wish to help translate it, let me know. Your help is always welcome! 🙌
If you wish to learn more about how to contribute to doc translations, check out the Translator’s documentation!
🫵 Proofreaders, your project needs you!
The PrestaShop project is still actively looking for proofreaders! If you feel that your translations aren’t validated fast enough and want to speed up the process (or if you simply wish to help other translators in your language) then consider becoming a proofreader — your help is always needed!
If you’re interested in becoming a proofreader, send me a message on Crowdin or on Slack! 📨
💕 Many thanks to June newcomers
Many people subscribe to the project(s) of their choice each month, but not so many start translating straight away. This month, 5 people joined the project and started translating right away!
That’s why I’d like to thank domagtom, Roman Sekeres, Wongcie Cahyono and Dmytro Zvieriev, as well as KateNong who rushed into the efforts immediately!
Thank you all!
A few stats
- 12 members joined the project this month.
- 25 members were active on the project.
- A total of 74,583 words have been translated and 75,228 validated. (That’s about as many words as Phillip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, congrats!) 🎉
- All this in 23 different languages.
Thank you all very much for your involvement!

Thank you for your involvement! 🎉
Almost there!
10 languages are almost fully available:

| Lithuanian | Persian | Portuguese (Brazil) | Romanian | Ukrainian |
There is only 1% of strings to translate and proofread! 💪
Congratulations and a huge thank you to all of you, contributors! 🎉
Of course, this is highlighting the languages that made some progress with new translations; but it does not mean that the languages that are not mentioned here are not active. Indeed, some editing and rewriting may be going on, but the percentage of translation would not be modified (since the work happens on strings that are already translated). So let’s not forget about the work of other contributors! Thanks to you too!
Let’s keep in touch!
If you have not joined us on Crowdin yet, it is never too late! 😉
Thanks, everyone! 🙌
