# Translating a survey (Localization)

By default, your survey language will be the one used to build your survey. [Learn more ](/manager/change-language.md)about changing Pristo's language.

To add a language translation to your survey:

1. After building your survey, navigate to the **Localizations** from the left menu.
2. At the top left, click on  <img src="/files/7qFzxkghXJFbBSDbnACZ" alt="" data-size="line">to add a new localization.
3. Inside the translation window, choose a language to translate to from the dropdown menu.
4. Add the appropriate translation for each part of your survey. Changes are automatically saved.

You can add more than one translation to each survey
{% endhint %}

Once you add a translation to the survey, your user will be able to change the survey to that language. You can also see the new translation in the [**Preview** ](/form-builder/previewing-your-survey.md)window.
