Translating the text to appear in FOH
Aloha Takeout provides a tool, Translation Editor, which allows you to translate the default English text that appears in the FOH to a language of your choosing. Using this tool, you can translate the text to be region-specific, dialect-specific, or use concept-specific terminology.

About translation editor
Prior to using Translation Editor, you should consider what words or phrases you plan to translate. Understanding what you need to translate impacts the way in which you use the tool.

![]() | Search | Enables you to search for a word or phrase that already exists in the translation file. |
![]() | Base | Contains the text in the base translation file. |
