Multi-Language Forms — Reach Respondents in Their Language

TL;DR: Forms now support 30+ languages. Setting a form's language localizes all respondent-facing UI — buttons, validation messages, placeholders, and date formats. You can also use Polly to translate all form content in one step.

#What gets localized

When you set a form's language, all respondent-facing interface elements switch automatically:

  • Buttons — "Next", "Submit", "Back" in the selected language
  • Validation messages — "This field is required" and other error text
  • Placeholders — input hints and helper text
  • Date formatting — locale-appropriate date and time display
  • Required indicators — localized labels

Your question text stays as-is — you write that in whatever language you want. The language setting handles the surrounding UI.

#Supported languages

Over 30 languages are supported, including: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Korean, Hindi, Thai, Turkish, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, Russian, Ukrainian, Indonesian, Filipino, and more.

#Translating form content

If you've built a form in English and want a Spanish version, ask Polly: "Translate this form to Spanish and set the language to Spanish." Polly translates all question text, descriptions, choice labels, and final page content, then switches the form language — all in one step.

This is faster than duplicating the form and manually translating each field.

#Use cases

  • Global surveys — collect feedback from respondents across regions
  • Multilingual teams — share forms that work for everyone
  • Localized lead capture — match the form language to your landing page
  • International events — registration forms in the attendee's language

#Availability
