# Translation

Interaction bot provides many options to configure the translation. You can see in these pages which commands do what and how to use them.

There are several ways to translate a message:

* Command -> translate your message to given language (see `/translate`)
* Application - Translate -> translate the selected message (target language is based on your discord application language)\
  This translation is ephemeral, this means its only visible for you.\

* Automatic -> automatic translation of the send messages (see [Broken mention](broken://pages/OBrzXHGauLyk5oRNA6Oy), [Broken mention](broken://pages/ly1DPz2DfqMNXDOgkveP) and [Broken mention](broken://pages/qLviOJYmPEPJjeWCUGOu))
