# Ask in your own language

## The worry

Website tools speak their own language: menus, fields, settings — often in English, always in their terms. And a second language on your site sounds like a project of its own: duplicate pages, plugins, a translator, links that point to the wrong version.

## What happens instead

You talk to your agent the way you talk, in the language you think in. You don't need the name of a field or a menu; you say what you mean. And when you want your site in another language, that is a sentence too: “Translate the whole site into German.” Every page gets its German address and its German text, [as a draft you look at first](/principles/draft-and-live-lifecycle).

## The details take care of themselves

Each page carries its address per language. [The language links, the sitemaps](/principles/seo-friendly) and the language switch follow by themselves — search engines find each version, and visitors land in the right one. A page you leave out simply does not exist in German: never an empty page, never half a translation.

## In practice

- “Add an English version of the about page.”
- “Make the Dutch opening hours match the English ones.”
- “Which pages don't have a French version yet?”

## What it costs

The words are written by your agent, and you read them before they go live — a translation is as good as the care you give it. A loam site never invents a page you did not make: a missing translation stays missing until you add it.
