free to take your part in the effort of making Weblate available in as many human languages
as possible. It brings Weblate closer to its users!
If you find a possible mistake in the source string, you can mark it with a comment in the Weblate editor.
This way, it can be discussed and corrected. If youre certain, you can also click on the link in the
:guilabel:`Source string location` section and submit a PR with your correction.

The language definitions are in the `weblate-language-data repository
