On Facebook there are hundreds of millions of people that don’t speak English as a first language. You might even have Facebook friends that don`t speak English. You might wonder how those people can read your posts in thier languages.
To make life easier for international friends to communicate, Facebook have features that do things like auto-translate posts in another language. If, however, you speak two languages and want to make sure that the translation for your posts is spot on, you can add one manually yourself.
Here’s how.
-
Sign in to your Facebook & Click on "Settings".
-
On the "Settings" screen, select "Language".
-
Under "Multilingual Posts" Select "Post in Multiple Languages".
-
Check the box that says "Write Posts in More Than One Language".
-
Click "Save Changes" and now, you’ll be able to post in two different languages at once.
-
Head back to your News Feed and start writing a new post. Try to write it in English first.
-
Next, click on the little grey "Write Post In Another Language".
-
Select the language you’re using and write a new version of your original post. For example French.
-
You can also add things like images, videos or stickers. They will appear with both posts.
-
Click Post and it’ll be shared on your Facebook. Anyone who views your Facebook page will see the post that’s right for them.
