<p>The currently 16 supported languages are English, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish and Ukrainian. All these languages have translations available for all antimicrobial agents and colloquial microorganism names.</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, Sys.getlocale("LC_COLLATE")), 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 R option <code>AMR_locale</code>, either by using <code>set_AMR_locale()</code> or by running e.g. <code>options(AMR_locale = "de")</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.</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 R option <code>AMR_locale</code> is set, the system variables <code>LANGUAGE</code> and <code>LANG</code> will be ignored.</p>
