Belarusian Language / Беларуская мова Good afternoon! On behalf of Belarusian gamers I ask you to add the Belarusian language to the "Broadcast language" list in the settings, so that the channels can finally separate their broadcasts from a number of others.
This will make it easier for viewers to find content to watch in their native language. Thousands of people can't find the content they like, and therefore stop using Twitch. Support for the Belarusian language is support for a large language group in the center of Europe.
For example, several channels whose authors use the Belarusian language, but which are forced to select…

Please add the Malay language as seperate to Bahasa Indonesia The Malaysian "Malay" language is very much different to Bahasa Indonesia, even though it has its similarities, are very much culturally and phonetically different that it could cause confusion if I were to label my streams as Bahasa Indonesia. Furthermore, Singaporean Malay also refer to their native language as "Malay", so I dont see why not adding the Malay language in the stream info setting.
Otherwise you could instead rename the "Bahasa Indonesia" tag as "Bahasa" instead of "Bahasa Indonesia" and basically combine them since the Malay language is also called "Bahasa Melayu" in its native language, but this is…

Kazakh language on Twitch (filter & language) The last 2 years, broadcasts in the Kazakh (Qazaq/Казахский/Qazaqşa) language are gaining popularity on YouTube.
For example (March 2022):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJx_4kwWNvM - 1600+ live peak viewers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVQBykqCPZg - 2000+ live peak viewers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHtXj6DDlKQ - 800+ live peak viewersKazakh is now only available on YouTube, so mostly Influencers choose this platform. Although many of the viewers follow the broadcasts on Twitch, as the many CIS esports competitions are broadcast there. Also, there are Twitch streamers who broadcast in Kazakh in the Russian category
In the filters there is the country of Kazakhstan, but no Kazakh language.
Goal #1 is to add…

Add many more languages Please just add more language categories. It is not hard to type out a few more words to make a world of difference to Twitch users around the world.
So many promising streamers are locked under "Language: Other", which doesn't let them get the recognition that they deserve and would receive in their own language community.

Add Tamil Language I am so surprised with the discrimination against Tamil speaking people around the globe.
Canada, Malaysia and Singapore has recognised Tamil as one of their country's official languages.
however, its ridiculous to see 'Twitch' hasn't adopted/ignorant/discriminative towards one of the oldest languages in the world (older than Hindi, Urdu, Hebrew, German, French English, Anglo-Saxon etc)
Pls update your settings for twitch streamer to allow adding the Tags : Tamil
Thank you!5 votes -
flemish add the language flemish. i'm tired of having to pick dutch and getting nothing else but channels from the netherlands presented. i'd like to see channels from my own country (Belgium). with this generalisation of dutch, that's as good as impossible. meaning your language recommendations are 99.99% useless.

Add Cornish (Kernewek) as a Stream Language Many languages don't appear in "Stream Language" options, meaning that viewers don't have the ability to filter and find streams in those languages, which is especially important for minority languages like Cornish (Kernewek).
Minority languages must be supported on Twitch alongside bigger language as the support is more important to them. Please add Cornish/Kernewek, the language of Cornwall/Kernow, as an option in "Stream Language".

Add Malayalam Language Malayalam is the language used by people of Kerala, a southern state of the country India. Malayalam is the official language of Kerala, which is a state with 3.46 crores population (as of 2018).
Many streamers from Kerala are now a part of Twitch.tv streaming community. Viewers from Kerala have also started increasing day by day. But, it is so hard for a new twitch.tv user to find Malayalam talking streamers.
It will be good for us Malayalis, aka Keralites, if Twitch adds Malayalam as a language.Thank you team for your continued support. Hope this suggestion will be considered.…

Easier way to find portuguese streamers from portugal, and not Brasil. Hello,
I'm here to ask if it is possible to create a specific TAG for Portuguese (Portugal) people, since every time, I try to find streamers from my country, It feels really hard to do it, and this happens because Portuguese tag includes as well the Brazilian people, and to be honest, I understand that, since they are "Portuguese" and it only makes sense, but its doesn't separate the "2" languages.
My suggestion is, either create a TAG called "(TUGA) Portuguese slang for «Portuguese»" or maybe create a Brazilian TAG for their language, this will help for small streamers from…

Add Belarusian language Greetings!
I would like to ask you about adding Belarusian localization and language tag to Twitch.
Why?
Because Belarus-speaking community grows every year, and more and more companies are ready to acknowledge that. Among those companies you can find Google, Apple and more.
Therefore, it would be great if Amazon would join'em in this and add Belarusian language on Twitch. It also will be a great chance to support freedom in our country in nowadays hard situation.
That would be a big win for our society. Żywie Biełaruś!

Able to choose the language Have the possibility to choose between Portuguese or Portuguese-BR.
They are similar languages, but have different expressions, different accents, and are written in a different way, just take a dictionary from both countries to see the difference.
Youtube has the same problem, 95% of my friends don't see BR videos, If you want to have more fans you should make this separation.
Best Regard

Add Asturian option on Live Stream information settings As an Asturian user I love to watch asturian streamers. But Twitch plataform don't allow me to set that my videos are in Asturian because I can't specify that I'm streaming in Asturian I must choose: "Others".
This situation creates a problem for at least 600,000 people that speak Asturian because we have no easy method to find videos/streams in our language.
For that reason, We will really appreciate that twitch adds Asturian (Asturianu) language as an option on Language settings of Live Streams.
NOTE: that we are not asking to translate the whole platform. We only want an easy…

Add Azerbaijani language Twitch please add Azerbaijani language as an option to stream. There are around 40 million Azerbaijanis in the world. Quite often I find my compatriots watching streams of worldwide famous streamers or Turkish streamers. All of my compatriots choose Turkish language as a streaming language for their broadcast, which makes it harder for an Azerbaijani viewers to find their local content creators . Thanks !

More Languages in general I've spoken to latvian streamers who have been told people struggle to find the channels that speak their language.
This is an accessibility issue for those who have to spend the time scrolling through the 'other' languages in an attempt to watch streams in their languages.
Simply adding more language categories would solve this issue. Twitch could ask their creators which languages they would like adding and I'm sure it would help many streamers and viewers alike.

More options for "Stream languages" Valencià Hello there,
As streamer I made several times streams in Valencià, one of the languages from Spain. I would like to request a new feature letting us be allowed to use it as an official language in the platform.
There are tons of people that use this language each day and it's the main language in most of the cities or towns from the Valencian Community.
Please, consider this idea as this would be awesome to give us visibility and have a stronger market of the platform for Valencian people.
Best regards,

More options for "Stream Language" (EUSKARA) There are several languages that do not have the option to be selected in the "Stream Language". This means that viewers do not have the option to filter and find streams in those languages.
We need minority languages to also have their place to be able to create content in these languages.
I would like to ask "EUSKARA" (official language of the Basque country) as an option in "Stream Language".

This situation creates a problem for at least 3.000.000- 4 million people that speak galician because we have no easy method to find videos/streams in our language.
For that reason, We will really appreciate that twitch adds Galician (Galego) language as an option on Language settings of Live Streams.
