# Adding Language Dictionaries

In the admin, to create language dictionaries for each language, you will need to first create the languages. By default ZauberCMS uses en-US, however you can change this in the appSettings to whatever you want.

But, to use language dictionaries, you will need to create the default language in the Languages page

Once you have created your languages you can then add your language dictionaries.&#x20;
