+
+<P>
+Mailman is multi-lingual, meaning its interface has been translated to many
+different languages. Your list administrator can enable various languages for
+their use when interacting with Mailman.
+(For a complete listing of the languages see
+<a class="url" href="http://www.list.org/i18n.html">http://www.list.org/i18n.html</a>.) If your list has other languages
+enabled, you may be able to have the web interface, etc. in a language of your
+choice.
+
+<P>
+<span class="note"><b class="label">Note:</b>
+This does NOT necessarily mean that all the posts sent to the list will
+be in the language you selected. Only the pre-prepared texts presented by
+Mailman will be affected by this setting. Posts are in whatever language the
+poster uses.</span>
+
+<P>
+Your preferred language is set when you subscribe (see
+Section<A HREF="node13.html#sec:subscribe">5.1</A>), and can be changed later if the list supports
+more than one language.
+
+<P>
+To change your preferred language in Mailman,
+
+<OL>
+<LI>Log in to your member options page. (See Section&nbsp;<A HREF="node9.html#sec:web">3.1</A> for
+ instructions on how to do this.)
+</LI>
+<LI>Go to the section marked ``What language do you prefer?'' and choose
+ the appropriate language from the drop-down list. If there is no
+ drop-down list of languages, the list you are on probably only supports
+ one language.
+</LI>
+</OL>
+
+<P>
+If your list does not support the language you would prefer to use, you may
+contact the list administrator (LISTNAME-owner@DOMAIN) to see if it can be
+added, but remember that this may mean some work that the list and/or site
+administrator(s) do not have time or the ability to do.
+
+<P>
+If your language of choice is not available because no translation
+exists for Mailman, please consider volunteering your time as a translator.
+For more information you may want to consult the mailman-i18n mailing
+list at <a class="url" href="http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-i18n">http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-i18n</a>. The
+current status of internationalization efforts is available at
+<a class="url" href="http://www.list.org/i18n.html">http://www.list.org/i18n.html</a>.
+
+<P>
+<span class="note"><b class="label">Note:</b>
+i18n is a common short-hand for ``internationalization'' because the word
+starts with an i, ends with an n, and has 18 letters in between. If you mumble
+a bit, i18n even sounds a bit like ``internationalization.''</span>
