## 🌍 Help Translate
We want **BetterLyrics** to be accessible to everyone, and your help in translating it is greatly appreciated! We use **Crowdin** to manage localization.
### How to Contribute
1. **Join the Project:**
Accept our invitation to join the translation team via Crowdin:
[Join BetterLyrics on Crowdin](https://crowdin.com/project/betterlyrics/invite?h=413bb0df7afa420247a98fefdae5e12c2647410)
2. **Translate & Proofread:**
Once you have joined, you are welcome to translate new strings or proofread existing language resources.
> **Note:** Please only **approve** a translation if you are native or fluent in that language and are confident in its accuracy.
### Syncing and Recognition
* **Synchronization:** Crowdin automatically syncs translations to GitHub periodically.
* **Merging:** Once you have completed proofreading a language and the resources have synced to GitHub via a Pull Request, the maintainers will merge the changes.
* **Credit:** After the merge, your Crowdin profile will be automatically added to the **Contributors** column in the Translation section of the `README` file.
Thank you for helping us make BetterLyrics better!
