The beta phase Arduino IDE 2.x is currently only available in English. The lack of internationalization is a known deficiency, and is tracked here:

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** Arduino has …a global community who speak many languages. Arduino IDE 2.0.0 currently only provides English language support. **Describe the solution you'd like** In order to make Arduino as accessible as possible, it would be beneficial to provide internationalization (i18n) support. The classic Arduino IDE and Arduino CLI are currently using [the Transifex translation platform](https://www.transifex.com/), and this has enabled amazing community volunteers to provide high quality translations to [83 languages](https://www.transifex.com/mbanzi/arduino-ide-15/)! This system seems to be working well, so it should be considered for Arduino IDE 2.0.0 as well. If possible, existing translations for strings shared between the classic Arduino IDE and Arduino IDE 2.0.0 should be reused. **Additional context** Arduino CLI already has internationalization support (https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/pull/676) and the strings originating from Arduino CLI should be translated there so that they can benefit every tool using Arduino CLI. **Related** - https://github.com/arduino/arduino-pro-ide/issues/303 - https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/issues/627 - https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/issues/712 - https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/issues/741 - https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/issues/762 - https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/issues/771

If you require internationalization, you'll need to use the classic Arduino IDE for now.
