# Managing Supported Languages

### Summary

Learn about **Vincent supported languages** and how to manage your **translation settings**. This guide shows you how to customize your interface language and configure automatic translation preferences to streamline your multi-lingual and **multi-jurisdictional legal research**.

### Why This is Important

Working across different languages is a reality for many legal professionals. Vincent provides powerful tools to customize your language experience, ensuring the interface is comfortable for you to use and that you can efficiently work with legal documents from around the world.

### Step-by-Step Guide

You can control two main language settings in your Vincent account.

#### 1. Customizing Your Interface Language

This setting changes the language of the Vincent interface itself (menus, buttons, etc.).

1. Click on your **Profile** icon in the top right corner of the screen.
2. From the dropdown menu, select **Language Settings**.
3. Under the **Select your language** section, choose your preferred interface language from the list.
4. Click **Save**.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="English Interface" %}
![Choose your preferred language for the Vincent interface.](/files/NCoiXNXdfaqmVBefPHCF)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Interfaz en Español" %}

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

#### 2. Configuring Automatic Translation

These settings control how Vincent handles documents that are in a different language from your interface.

1. Navigate to the **Language Settings** menu as described above.
2. Scroll down to the **Automatic translation** section.
3. Here you can configure your preferences:
   * **Suggest translating content:** Vincent will ask you if you want to translate a document.
   * **Automatically translate content:** Vincent will translate all foreign-language documents automatically.
   * **Preferred language:** Choose the language you want documents to be translated *into*.
   * **Visualization options:** Choose to show the translation and the original document side-by-side by default.
4. Click **Save** to apply your changes.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="English Interface" %}
![Configure how you want Vincent to handle automatic translation of documents.](/files/X33Y0SbU3CPGgDH72T5H)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Interfaz en Español" %}

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Best Practices & Pro Tips

* **Side-by-Side View:** For detailed legal analysis, we recommend enabling the **Show translation and original side-by-side by default** option. This allows you to read the convenient translation while still being able to verify the original legal text.
