A multilingual website will attract new users from other countries and increase your sales.

To display a language dropdown as in the image above in your store, check out the following steps:

## How to add more languages to your site?

**Step 1:** In the Shopify Admin, navigate to **Settings.**

**Step 2:** To add more languages to your store, choose **Languages > Add languages.**

**Step 3:** Choose the languages you want to add to your site.

{% hint style="info" %}
Use the Shopify [Translate & Adapt app](https://apps.shopify.com/translate-and-adapt), or a [compatible third-party translation app](https://apps.shopify.com/collections/apps-for-store-languages), to translate your store. Alternatively, you can follow the instructions to [import your translations](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/markets/languages/translate) directly into Shopify.
{% endhint %}

**Step 4:** Hit **Publish** when you're done.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The languages option shows in the **Header** or **Footer** of the theme. Therefore, you need to enable the **language selector**.
