Hi @Scott Haggar I believe you are correct that it should be able to determine the language of the respondent’s browser. However, as for setting the language, are you looking to have a different language than the one in your builder? For example, if the respondent speaks French, it would automatically show in French? If so, I don’t think this is possible but @mathio or @picsoung can confirm!

Yes, it seems to only respect the user’s browser settings.

Our website can be manually switched by the user and declares the language in the head. If a user’s browser default is English and they navigate to the French site, I would like the form to be in French. Additionally, even if a user’s browser is set to French and they are on the French site, the typeform starts in English and asks the user if they would like to switch.

Ideally, it would be an attribute in the embed that would determine if the form should display in French (no prompt).

Unfortunately I dont think it is possible to explicitly switch language of your tyepform.

@Liz I think this functionality is a good candidate for a feature request.

Thanks for the clairity @mathio. I whole heartly agree it would be a great feature! Attached is a mock of where I would have expected the option when creating the embed. 

Hello @Scott Haggar , I think this is the first time I see this setting. Is this something available on the share page or just a mock you created yourself?

Sorry to be unclear. I made this. I thought I would have an option like this once I upgraded my plan :D

I would like this feature as well - more generally, to be able to specify the language as a URL parameter. 

I’m sending surveys to my customers, they speak multiple languages and I know what language they have set their account to, it would be very simple for me to have a local=en-CA or local=fr-CA

Right now the form defaults to french and gives the option to switch language at the top, which is a good back up, but since I know the desired language, this URL parameters would be better. I’m already using other URL parameters (hidden fields).
