# Translations

> The words the assistant uses that no flow author wrote.

Not everything a contact reads comes from a flow. Button labels, command
responses, and system messages are supplied by the platform, and this screen is
where they are changed.

## What is in here

A table of translation keys, one row each: the **group** it belongs to, the
**key** itself, a **description** of when it is used, and a column per language
the tenant has enabled.

Keys are grouped by where they appear — `buttons.*` for the labels on generated
buttons, `commands.*` for what built-in commands reply, and so on. The
description column says exactly when each is used, which matters because the key
name alone rarely does.

## Defaults are already filled in

Every cell arrives with a sensible default in every enabled language. The screen
is not a translation task waiting to be done — the assistant works without anyone
opening it.

**Filling a cell overrides that default for that language.** Leave a cell alone
and the catalogue default stands; edit it and your text is used from then on.

<Note>
  Override selectively. Changing `buttons.yes` from "Yes" to "Sure" affects every
  confirmation the assistant ever offers, in every flow, forever. That is
  sometimes exactly right — a brand with a particular voice — and sometimes an
  accident nobody connects to the button they changed months earlier.
</Note>

## Where this sits among the languages

Three different things carry language, and they are edited in three places:

|                                    | Where                              |
| ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| What flows say                     | In the flow itself                 |
| Buttons, commands, system messages | **Here**                           |
| Which languages exist at all       | [Settings](/using/tenant-settings) |

A language must be enabled in Settings before a column for it appears here.

## Per assistant

This screen belongs to one assistant. Two assistants can answer the same command
differently — useful when one is formal and another is not, and worth knowing
before wondering why an override did not take effect somewhere else.
