Languages in Levlix
Levlix replies in your Discord language, lets you override it with /preferences, and shows English wherever a translation is missing.
Available Languages
English is the source language. Every string is written in English first, and every other language is measured against it. As of the date at the top of this page, the picture looks like this:
- English (US): complete.
- German: largely translated, about 90 percent of all strings.
- 28 further languages: partially translated, between 80 and 85 percent each. These are Bulgarian, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Spanish (Spain and Latin America), Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
- English (UK): identical to US English apart from a few spelling variants.
"Complete" means every string has its own translation. "Partially translated" means the remaining strings appear in English. The untranslated remainder is concentrated in a few areas, above all the Server Logging module, plus strings that were added recently.
How the Language Is Chosen
Replies only you see follow a personal setting, not a server setting. For each of them, Levlix checks in this order:
- The language you saved with
/preferences. - If you never saved one, the language of your Discord client. The first time you use a Levlix command, that client language is stored as your initial preference.
- English, if your Discord language is not one of the 31 above.
Because the choice is tied to your account, two members of the same server can read the same command in different languages.
Slash command descriptions follow your Discord language in every language listed above. Command names are translated into German only; in every other language they stay English.
Changing Your Language
- Run
/preferencesin any server where Levlix is present. - Choose Language Settings.
- Pick a language from the region menus (Europe, Americas, Asia, or all).
The change applies immediately, in every server you share with Levlix. Discord itself offers only Brazilian Portuguese as a client language, so European Portuguese can be selected here and nowhere else.
Server Language in the Dashboard
The server settings in the web dashboard also contain a Language field with every language Levlix speaks. This is a separate, server-wide value for messages everyone in a channel sees, because one message cannot follow every reader's preference. It is used by Quizzes, rank cards and the leaderboard, RPG screens and group messages, the shop and the lottery, events, Top.gg vote announcements and the daily Server Health notification. Replies only you see follow the personal preference described above.
Public announcements from the Notifications module have their own switch: they use either the server's Discord language or the member's Discord language, as configured in the notification settings.
Cards in Your Language
Public cards, such as a quiz post, a rank card, an event announcement or a minigame result, are written in the server language so that everyone in the channel reads the same text. Many of them carry an In my language button. The button is labelled in the server language and carries a small Levlix icon of two speech bubbles, so you can spot it even when you do not read the server language.
Press it and Levlix shows you the same card, only to you, in your own language (see How the Language Is Chosen). Nobody else in the channel sees it, and the public card stays as it is.
- The copy is read-only. It has no buttons to play, buy, vote or answer, only the text. Use the public card for that.
- Some live cards can only be shown while the bot still has them in memory. This covers games, RPG screens, rank cards, leaderboards and vote cards. After a bot restart, or after a few hours, the button tells you that the card is no longer available. Posts that Levlix can rebuild from its records, such as quiz posts, event announcements, shop notices and the monthly vote post, keep working.
- Direct messages and replies only you see are always in your own language and need no button.
