Adding languages for Dwarf Fortress

If your language is missing in the dictionary drop-down list of the installer, please create an issue.

It is desirable that there is at least a translation of the title menu and some other initial screens. You can participate in the translation of the game here:

Translate_Dwarf_Fortress

Localization of the installer

You can help with translation of the installer to your language: translation of the installer on transifex.com

There are only about 40 strings to translate. Once the translation to a language is finished, it can be added to the installer and will be available in its future releases.
