Add a new language

If you already have Glossia configured and want to add another target language, follow these steps.

1. Update GLOSSIA.md

Open your GLOSSIA.md and add the new language code to the targets array:

targets:
  - es
  - fr
  - de
  - ja

2. Add language-specific context (optional)

If the new language needs special instructions, such as formality level or character set considerations, create a context override file:

GLOSSIA/
  ja.md

Write any language-specific guidance in that file. Glossia merges it with the base context for Japanese translations.

3. Publish the configuration change

Commit and push the updated configuration. If the repository is connected to Glossia, the server detects the new target language and starts a translation session.

Existing translations for other languages remain unchanged when their inputs and effective context have not changed.

4. Review the translation pull request

Follow the translation session in Glossia, then review the generated language files in the pull request opened by the server.
