# Salesforce Language Support

Learn about the supported languages in Salesforce, and understand the difference between fully supported, end-user, and platform-only languages. Learn which languages are available in the UI for each Salesforce cloud, and review important limitations for right-to-left (RTL) languages in Salesforce.

- **[Supported Languages](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.faq_getstart_what_languages_does.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Salesforce offers three levels of language support: fully supported languages, end-user languages, and platform-only languages. For fully supported languages, Salesforce features and user interface (UI) text appear in the chosen language. End-user languages allow individual users to select a language other than the company’s default language for end-user facing UI. In situations where Salesforce doesn’t provide default translations, use platform-only languages to localize apps and custom functionality that you build on the Salesforce Platform.
- **[User Interface Language Support](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.faq_getstart_language_support_ui.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Understand the available languages in the user interface (UI) for your product. If your company’s default language or the user’s personal language isn’t available in the UI, the language defaults to English (US).
- **[Right-to-Left (RTL) Language Support](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.faq_getstart_rtl.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    To make right-to-left (RTL) language users feel more at home, Salesforce supports Arabic and Hebrew as end-user languages and Urdu as a platform language. In Lightning Experience and Experience Builder sites, the RTL Language Layout is the default layout for right-to-left languages, with some important limitations. Salesforce Classic and Experience Cloud sites using Salesforce Tabs + Visualforce offer limited support for RTL languages for some features.
