Although those familiar with South African English would be able to understand US English, it’s still technically a different language. As such, it’s up for translation, and this is where you can contribute!
Start Contributing Today
All you need is your WordPress.org account to login at https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/en-za and find a project you want to translate. This could be your own theme or plugin, or one you use but would really like to see translated anyway. Each string you submit will be validated (usually within a few days), and then you’ll appear as a Translation Contributor on the en_ZA Team page.
