  I was looking for Afaan Oromo in the WordPress interface, however, I couldn’t find it. Afaan Oromo, is East Africa’s widely spoken language with over 40 million speakers in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Somalia. I was quite gutted to see Afaan Oromo missing in the interface and in the translation project. I would like to be one of the Afaan Oromo translators and I would love to see WordPress start the Afaan Oromo translation project as soon as possible.

  Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi xalayaa,

  Actually, we maintain a separate set of translation platform at https://translate.wordpress.com/ :) Please make sure to read the section at the top and links within it.

  I’ve created a new language set for Oromo here:

  Happy translating!

  @naokomc Thanks for supplying that information! @xalayaa The information I provided applies to the WordPress.org blogging/CMS software. The information that naokomc provided refers to WordPress.com hosted blogs. Both of these platforms have translation groups.
