Use one of these supported language names or ISO-639-1 codes: English (en), Chinese (zh), Czech (cs), Danish (da), Dutch (nl), Finnish (fi), French (fr), German (de), Greek (el), Italian (it), Japanese (ja), Norwegian (no), Polish (pl), Portuguese (pt), Romanian (ro), Russian (ru), Spanish (es), Swedish (sv), Turkish (tr), or Ukrainian (uk).</p></dd>
<p>The currently 20 supported languages are English (en), Chinese (zh), Czech (cs), Danish (da), Dutch (nl), Finnish (fi), French (fr), German (de), Greek (el), Italian (it), Japanese (ja), Norwegian (no), Polish (pl), Portuguese (pt), Romanian (ro), Russian (ru), Spanish (es), Swedish (sv), Turkish (tr), and Ukrainian (uk). All these languages have translations available for all antimicrobial drugs and colloquial microorganism names.</p>
<p>To permanently silence the once-per-session language note on a non-English operating system, you can set the <ahref="AMR-options.html">package option</a><code><ahref="AMR-options.html">AMR_locale</a></code> in your <code>.Rprofile</code> file like this:</p>
<p>Please read about adding or updating a language in <ahref="https://github.com/msberends/AMR/wiki/"class="external-link">our Wiki</a>.</p><divclass="section">
<h3id="changing-the-default-language">Changing the Default Language<aclass="anchor"aria-label="anchor"href="#changing-the-default-language"></a></h3>
<p>The system language will be used at default (as returned by <code>Sys.getenv("LANG")</code> or, if <code>LANG</code> is not set, <code><ahref="https://rdrr.io/r/base/locales.html"class="external-link">Sys.getlocale("LC_COLLATE")</a></code>), if that language is supported. But the language to be used can be overwritten in two ways and will be checked in this order:</p><ol><li><p>Setting the <ahref="AMR-options.html">package option</a><code><ahref="AMR-options.html">AMR_locale</a></code>, either by using e.g. <code>set_AMR_locale("German")</code> or by running e.g. <code>options(AMR_locale = "German")</code>.</p>
<p>Note that setting an <spanstyle="R">R</span> option only works in the same session. Save the command <code>options(AMR_locale = "(your language)")</code> to your <code>.Rprofile</code> file to apply it for every session. Run <code>utils::file.edit("~/.Rprofile")</code> to edit your <code>.Rprofile</code> file.</p></li>
<li><p>Setting the system variable <code>LANGUAGE</code> or <code>LANG</code>, e.g. by adding <code>LANGUAGE="de_DE.utf8"</code> to your <code>.Renviron</code> file in your home directory.</p></li>
</ol><p>Thus, if the <ahref="AMR-options.html">package option</a><code><ahref="AMR-options.html">AMR_locale</a></code> is set, the system variables <code>LANGUAGE</code> and <code>LANG</code> will be ignored.</p>
