# How to request a new language to be added **1)** Contact [Trang](/user/profile/TRANG) (by [email](mailto:team@tatoeba.org) or [private message](/private_messages/write/TRANG)) and indicate in the title the language(s) that you would like us to add.</p> **IMPORTANT:** We cannot add your language if it does not have an [ISO 639-3](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639-3) code. At this point we already have a lot of languages to deal with, and it's a bit too complicated to deal with languages that are not "officially" recognized. **2)** In your email, tell us what icon we can use for each requested language. It does not necessarily have to be the flag of a country. We just want a picture that people can easily associate to the language. If you don't have any specific image, give Pharamp some ideas of what she could use to represent the language (a color, a symbol, an animal). Give all the ideas you have so that we can invent a nice icon for the language. Keep in mind that our icons are only 30x20 pixels. You do not have create the icon yourself. For graphical consistency, it's better that we do it. Simply send us (or link us) an image from which we will create the icon. **3)** Translate 5 sentences into your language(s). Don't worry if the language detection fails. For instance it's possible that the language is detected as Hungarian, but you are not adding a sentence in Hungarian. This is not a problem. If it happens, you can click on the language icon, and select "other language" in the list that appears (it's the first option). Then later, you will be able to set the correct language once it's added in Tatoeba. **4)** Create a public list and name it with the name of your language. Add your 5 translations into that list. Feel free to translate more than 5 sentences, but always add them into the list, so that we can easily find them! **5)** Don't hesitate to ask us if you don't know how to do something! **IMPORTANT:** We will only add your language(s) if you have done all of this. And please forgive us if we take forever despite your going through all these steps. # Pending requests ## Cornish * Requested by: [Sisial](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/Sisial), [Gulliver](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/Gulliver) * ISO code: cor * icon: http://www.stratton-gardens.co.uk/flag.jpg * list: http://tatoeba.org/sentences_lists/show/1199 ## Azerbaijani * Requested by: [LanguageExpert](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/LanguageExpert), [Imp](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/Imp) * ISO code: ? * icon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Azerbaijan.svg * list: 1897911, 1897912, 1897913, 499687, 499684 ## Khmer * Requested by: [LanguageExpert](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/LanguageExpert) * ISO code: khm * icon: http://www.senojflags.com/images/country-flag-icons/Cambodia-Flag.png * list: 1897914, 1897915, 1897916, 1897917, 1897918, http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences_lists/show/765 ## Haitian Creole * Requested by: [LanguageExpert](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/LanguageExpert) * ISO code: ? * icon: ? * list: 1897919, 1897920, 1897921, 1897923, 1387888 ## Lao * Requested by: [LanguageExpert](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/LanguageExpert) * ISO code: ? * icon: ? * list: 1897933, 1897940, 1897943, 1897946, 1897951 ## Sinhala * Requested by: [honolulu](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/honolulu) * ISO code: sin * icon: Use Sri Lankan national flag, as this is the most frequently associated icon with this language. * list: ? ## Sango * Requested by: [ambroise](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/ambroise) * ISO code: sag * icon: http://www.pays-monde.fr/continent-afrique-1/drapeau-national-republique-centrafricaine-41.html * list: ? ## Turkmen * Requested by: [Imp](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/Imp) * ISO code: tuk * icon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Turkmenistan.svg * list: ? ## Tajik * Requested by: [Imp](http://tatoeba.org/user/profile/Imp) * ISO code: tgk * icon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Tajikistan.svg * list: ?
