We’re currently working on MailChimp v3.2. Along with a few other really cool features, we’re going to have translated versions of our entire opt-in process (signup forms, welcome emails, error messages—everything) in the following languages:
- Danish
- Dutch
- French (European)
- German
- Italian
- Norwegian
- Portuguese (Brazilian)
- Spanish (Latin American)
- Swedish
Those are the languages our customers have been asking for the most. Any other requests?
Please chime in below with comments. We may be able to work more translations into this release if we get enough suggestions soon enough.
And speaking of MailChimp traveling abroad: Natalya Kungurtseva, a very nice artist from Kazakhstan, sends us “Frederick von Chimpenheimer IV Travels The World” (we turned her beautiful artwork into a .MOV slideshow).
Update: Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Spanish (EU), Hindi, and French (Canadian) have been added to the list.
[Update 12-28-2010] – If you don’t see your language, and you’d like to help contribute, here’s a translation form
Our company is starting to do alot of business in Japan.
Any chance of a Japanese translation?
Thanks.
great news! will save us lots of time and hassle!
A huge THANK YOU from brazilian mailchimpers!
Por favor, español de España. Gracias.
We second Marc.
Having mailchimp handle Japanese would be fantastic.
Ok, looks like the translation service is not going to be able to get us more in time for v3.2′s release end of this month.
New translations will need to wait for v3.3 (maybe end of August, depending on the features we plan)
So far for v3.3, we’ve got Japan, Korean, Chinese, and Spanish/Spain on the list.
We second Nicky. Please add spanish (Spain).
Español de España es el idioma mas importante para sus traducciones.
OK, good news.
With the Portuguese (Brazilian) you can go to Portuguese (European)
For my Canadian clients, Canadian French (as opposed to the European version) would be a nice thing.
would really love to see mailchimp in both traditional and simplified Chinese. looking forward.
I’m currently in the process of selecting an e-mail marketing application for a Dutch company. Adding our languague would be great! It gives me an extra reason to persuade management to go for Mailchimp! Could you drop me a line when it’s available?
A Greek version would be great for us in Greece. Maybe we can help you do it.
[...] Whenever you setup a new list in MailChimp, the entire opt-in process is now available in 16.5 different languages. The translations include signup forms, landing pages, error messages, welcome emails, [...]
Any chance we can have Arabic?
Please!!!! C’mon the Chimp, I know you can do it!!
Indonesia please.
Thanks…
I want to sign up for free just to learn more about Chimp mail and see if I can recommend it to the companies I work for. But it’s not possibile because I enter my yahoo account and then have to give my cell phone number but that’s in Italy so I cann’t sign up for free from Italy? Thanks for a quick reply Esther
Hi Esther, you just have to signup with another email address. Preferably with the same domain name as your website. The SMS verification has helped a lot of users get by with using Yahoo, Gmail, etc., but it’s not 100% perfect. Yet.
I am ready to translate it into Turkish for free.
I second Daniel Agustianus. Bahasa Indonesia please.
We work with both English- and French-speaking customers and really need a French version of Mailchimp. Do you have any update on the timescale for this?
Hi Steve, Translating our entire application to other languages is a big undertaking, so will not be complete anytime in the near future. If you help French customers, you can setup their MailChimp signup forms, thank you emails, and everything that’s “customer-facing” to be French (or a bunch of other languages). Additionally, our campaign building interface supports just about any language (just not the “right-to-left ones”). If you want customers to have access to their stats and metrics, you can use our API to program a custom web page (in French) that displays all their reports for them.
The German translation does not seem to be online yet, right? When can i expect it?
Japanese please!!!
I work a lot with X-Cart which I provide full french translation and pre-configured software for french market.
X-Cart will integrate MailChimp Api directly into their software soon and a french version of MailChimp should be really welcome to provide it.
As you know french customer are not really confortable with english language, so do you have any timeline to transmit about french version availability ?
Best regards
We’d love a french version of mailchimp, but it’s not in the near-term roadmap.
Hi, I’m using the mailchimp api to send my campaigns, and I’ve selected the french language in a list setting.
When I create a campaign for this list through the api without adding the unsubscribe tag, mailchimp adds it for me… in an english sentence instead of a french one as I would have expected.
Is this a bug ? Are there workarounds ?
Thanks a lot !
I can’t believe this, a well known site like mailchimp does not support Arabic.
At least gave us the ability to customize the code
