## In your language
The screens, the editor and the app speak English (US and UK), Dutch, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and
Polish. ESP Screens takes Home Assistant's language and uses its words, so a door says what it says in the Home
Assistant app. Settings → Language & region picks another language, the clock and how numbers are written, for every
screen at once. Most languages still need someone who speaks them to check the texts:
[Translating ESP Screens](docs/TRANSLATING.md) says how, and how to add a language.

<p align="center"><sub>The same home in German, French and Polish. The screens follow your Home Assistant: its language, its words for a light or a robot, and how your country writes a date, a time and a number — 75 % in German and French, 75% in Polish and English.</sub></p>
The screens, the editor and its messages speak **English (US and UK), Nederlands, Deutsch, Français, Italiano,
Español, Português and Polski**. Nothing to set up: ESP Screens takes the language of your Home Assistant.

- **The editor** follows the language of your Home Assistant profile, so two people in one house each read their own.
- **A screen** carries one language, built into its firmware: change it and press **Update** on the screen (or let
the nightly round do it). The clock (24 hours or 12 with AM/PM) and the number format change straight away, on
every screen at once.
- **Words from Home Assistant stay Home Assistant's**: what a door, an airco or a robot says on a tile and in its
card is the word its own dashboard shows, in your language.
Most languages still need someone who speaks them to read the texts through, and a new language is one file.
[Translating ESP Screens](docs/TRANSLATING.md) walks through both; a language without a file falls back to English
while it keeps your country's clock and numbers.
