Dear friends,  
If I want to simply translate these category names into other languages,  
where do I need to do it.

Can you help me make a screenshot or video demonstration,

Many friends around me want to learn slicer, but English is not very good for them. I want to simply translate some commonly used modules

thank you very much! I know a little python

There’s been [some previous work and discussion](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/slicer-internationalization/579) that you can review. Unfortunately nothing is yet simple and comprehensive, but with some work you can probably use some of this already. Some of us are working on a grant application to improve internationalization support but that may take a few years.
