How it works

Fillout gives you two ways to control the language of your form. You can change the Default language to set the language used for system messages throughout the form, or enable translations to let respondents access the same form in multiple languages. If respondents have enabled Google Translate, you can also disable this automatic translation from the same language settings.

How to change form language

Open your form settings by clicking the settings icon on the upper right area.

Screenshot 2025-10-16 at 6.24.40 PM.png Changing the form’s language will affect system messages throughout the form. For example, the text inside this file uploader field type will automatically be translated into Korean. Screenshot 2025-10-16 at 6.07.23 PM.png
This feature only translates text that you can’t manually edit. Questions, button labels, text, and choice labels will remain the same. However, you are free to edit them.

​
Translate your form

Unlike changing your form’s Default language, which switches it to a single language, translating your form lets respondents access it in multiple languages. Go to your form’s Language settings. Screenshot 2025-10-16 at 6.26.26 PM.png Then Enable translations and + Add your preferred languages.
The live form only shows translations of text that has been published. If you edit a field after publishing, the live form shows its original-language text until you Publish the form again. The editor preview still shows your draft translations.

​
Disable Google Translate

Many Chrome respondents have Google Translate on, which auto-translates websites. If you’ve already set your form to your preferred language, you can stop the respondent’s browser from auto-translating the form.
