Hello Magento Friends ?,
A multi-language store plays a leading role in driving customers to the site and create a better shopping experience for the users. Language support makes the store user-friendly. Magento favors configuring language packs for your store to make it handy and increase the readability. By modifying the Locale option, the admin can change the language of the store. Though it does not change the internal content. The text that is converted to a selected language involves titles, labels, buttons, links, etc.
