### Interface language

### Custom translations

You can add translations for custom elements in several places, including **Custom Fields** and **Task Types**.

- **Translation icon:** Appears when an element can be translated.
- **Input field:** Select the icon, then enter the text for the relevant language.

This lets you maintain your own terminology in both languages and keep the app consistent for a multilingual team.
