Localization

How it works:
  • Choose a relevant category for your idea and check to see if any other users have already submitted this suggestion before creating your own
  • Be clear with your suggestion, provide examples and solutions to the problem you are posing. Suggestions without actionable feedback may be closed without comment
  • Upvote existing ideas, as opposed to creating multiple similar requests
  • Be sure to share your suggestion with others to gain more support!
  • Note: Suggestions are not guarantees that we will take action on an idea. We will try our best to communicate why an idea may not work, but may not always be able to share that information.
  • Titles that are unclear or unnecessarily vulgar may be reworded to better reflect the request for ease of discovery


If you need help:
This forum is for ideas only. If you need help, please check out our help portal for tons of articles that may answer your questions. If you still need help, you can reach out to our support team in the help portal as well!

Appeals or commentary on suspension decisions, support requests, suggestions disparaging others, and non-constructive feedback will be closed without comment.

  1. If someone writes potentially nsfw word in chat and it is censored as stars (****), upon clicking the stars twitch asks if this word was properly censored. The "No" selection in this case is mistranslated to Finnish as "En", which means "I don't". It should be "Ei" which means "No".

  2. The Russian word "нега" (pronounced: nega) is constantly blocked or held for review by AutoMod. This is a severe localization bug.In the Russian language, "нега" is an absolutely clean, safe, and highly literary word. It is found in official academic dictionaries (like Ozhegov and Dahl). It means "bliss", "serenity", "comfort", or "relaxation" (e.g., used in phrases like "morning bliss" or "relaxation before sleep"). It has ZERO offensive, derogatory, or inappropriate meanings.AutoMod flags it incorrectly due to its spelling, possibly confusing it with a blocked English word or misinterpreting it as inappropriate content.Update the Russian AutoMod dictionary and whitelist the word…

  3. If your Twitch App on mobile is in french, when a streamer is going live, you will receive "(Streamer) est live" which isn't a proper way to say it. It should be "(Streamer) est en live". Tiny mistake ! :)

  4. Website twitch.tv:
    - On the schedule, twitch.tv/streamer/schedule, the timezone listed top left of the schedule is displayed using 'en' locale regarldess of the selected locale. This means that any timezone-abbreviation not recognised by 'en' (en-US) will display as the GMT-offset.
    - In the chat, twitch.tv/streamer/chat, any pinned message will have the time of that message displayed using 'en' locale regarldess of the selected locale. This means a message sent at 15:00 will display as "3 PM" in all locales.

  5. On the subscription info card in English version it states "Your next Sub anniversary is in X days". In Finnish localisation the word "anniversary" is translated as "vuosipäivä". In the context of it referring to a monthly anniversary it would be better to use the word "merkkipäivä" which points to a more general anniversary and not strictly to a yearly one.

    Thank you.

  6. The Dutch translations on the website are incredibly awkward.
    Example: "Schenk een abonnement v"
    "Nog *** abonneepunten te gaan!"

    Or a more obvious example, in chat, whenever someone subscribes:
    "xyz heeft zich geabonneerd op niveau 1. Hij/zij heeft zich voor 22 maanden geabonneerd, en is al 22 maanden op rij abonnee!"

    The pronouns are very awkwardly put there. Nobody says "Hij/zij" like that in Dutch, especially not the young audience that is watching. It feels like the entire Twitch site is translated by a chatbot, or by a 50yro anti-English Flemish grandma who is not used to genderless writing.

  7. When you go to the Drops & Rewards tab and select a game, for example Enshrouded, you will see instructions on how to get rewards in the Progress & Redemption section. The sentence "Connect Twitch account with the account for Enshrouded to receive the reward" was translated into Polish as "Połącz kontro Twitcha z kontem gry Enshrouded, aby otrzymać nagrodę".

    The word "kontro" is wrong and does not exist in Polish. It should be "konto". Please fix this translation.

  8. On the Analytics summary page (in Spanish Translation), the text in the ‘Suggested categories’ items is overflowing, and some values are not fully visible. We could abbreviate the text to avoid overflow.

  9. Hello,

    There is a bad translation in the Bulgarian version of the site (Gift Subs promo).

    The text "3 days left" is currently translated as "3 дни вляво", which implies direction (to the left).

    It should be translated as "Остават 3 дни" (time remaining).

    I have screenshots of the error, which I can provide if needed.

    Please correct this context error. Thank you!

  10. The notification string "Your X-stream streak is mantained with Y" is wrongly translated to "Você mantece sua sequência de X lives em Y".

    It should read "Você manteve sua sequência de X lives em Y" (with a "v" instead of "c" in the word "manteve")

    Being "X" the number of streams in sequence and "Y" the username of the stream.

  11. On Russian "Joining the Affiliate Program" page there is a typo. In the "Monetization Tools:"/"Инструменты монетизации:" sub article it says "Хайпочат (подрбонее)". Clearly it meant to be written as "Подробнее" instead of "Подрбонее".

  12. On Twitch, during special events or other events, a banner shows when this starts and/or ends. The problem is that this date and time is hardcoded, written into the text and does not change regardless of which timezone the user is in.

    The problems that occur with this are numerous:
    - For English, it uses US date format (regardless if UK English is picked), which means when the numerical format is used "8/10" which is intended as August 10, can be read as 8 October. The timezone "PST"/"PDT" can be meaningless to many users.
    - For other languages, translations has…

  13. In the "Video Manager" section of the dashboard, the call-to-action button to "highlight" a video says "Destacado" when it should say "Destacar".
    And the "highlighted" videos say "Destacar" when it should say "Destacado".

    They've reversed the words. It would be great if they could correct this because it's a bit confusing, to be honest.

  15. The Umamusume drops cannot be collected unless linked to an account. The link leads to a site that is entirely in Japanese. It's impossible to create any account. I went round and round with support to just get them to change the gd link to an english site, but they refused to be of any help. Eventually I was directed here to drop this suggestion where it will never be seen again.

  16. Fix text "Zbavte se zdarma všech reklam" at "Zbavte se většiny reklam" or "Zbavte se nesponzorských reklam".
    "zdarma" = free - must pay 12$, this not is free
    "všech reklam" = all ads - no remove all ads
    "většiny" = most (Get rid of most ads) or "nesponzorských" = non-sponsored - remove ads only twitch, no sponsor.

  17. I suggest change current translation of Follow ("Отслеживать") to "В избранное" and Following ("Отслеживаемое") to "Избранное" and Followers ("Фолловеры:") to "В избранном:"
    That might sound better.

  19. In the cancellation emails "Ihr Abonnement wurde storniert", there is a space missing after the date.

    Current Translation:
    "Ab dem in dieser Mail angegebenen Datum wurde dein Abo gekündigt und wird sich nicht verlängern. Bis zum 1. Jul 2024genießt du weiterhin deine Abonnementvorteile."

    Expected Translation:
    "Ab dem in dieser Mail angegebenen Datum wurde dein Abo gekündigt und wird sich nicht verlängern. Bis zum 1. Jul 2024 genießt du weiterhin deine Abonnementvorteile."
