# Languages

> The languages Sonto is translated into, and the languages it understands as you type

Sonto follows your device's language. If that language is one Sonto speaks, the whole app appears in
it — menus, settings, planning flows and all. Otherwise Sonto falls back to English.

There's nothing to configure: change your language in your system settings and Sonto follows.

## Languages Sonto is translated into

Sonto ships in nine languages:

* English
* Chinese (Simplified) — **new in 2.0**
* Dutch
* French
* German
* Japanese
* Korean
* Portuguese (Brazil)
* Spanish

## Languages Sonto reads as you type

[Natural language input](/reference/natural-language-input) — typing `buy milk tomorrow 3pm` and having
Sonto schedule it for you — is a separate piece of machinery, and it covers a slightly different set:

**English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese.**

<Info>
  The one difference is **Korean**: the app is fully translated into Korean, but typed dates and times
  aren't read in Korean yet. On a Korean system the interface is Korean, and Sonto reads typed dates in
  English.
</Info>

Projects (`#`), tags (`@`) and the priority marker (`!!!`) work the same in every language, because they
match against names you've created yourself.

## Availability

Languages work the same on **Mac** and **iPhone & iPad**.
