==================
Hi,
I’m based in the UK, and use LimeSurvey in English. All my surveys (some still live) use UK English.

However, I’m about to send a survey to an Italian audience. Is there a way I can run this survey in Italian (e.g. next/submit buttons, error messages) without having to manually change the text? The questions I input will already be in Italian.

As always, thank you for your help
Kathryn

When you create a survey you are asked for the base language.
If Italian is the only language of the survey, fine.
If not, add the additional languages in "General settings"

Volunteers are not paid.
Not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless

Just like Joffm says.

Only one addon: If Italian doesn't show up as an option for the base language, you need to include it in the general settings as a language option. This does not impact any existing surveys, but it gives you the option of choosing Italian for new surveys or add Italian to an existing survey, if you wish so.

I answer at the LimeSurvey forum in my spare time, I'm not a LimeSurvey GmbH employee.
