== New languages can be easily added by following the steps below.==
* First download the setup file for your langpack from [http://pootle.sugarlabs.org/langpacks/ pootle]
** You can download directly in XO or copy it from your computer to your XO.
* After this open terminal(I prefer virtual terminal by pressing Alt+Ctrl+F2).
* Run the setup file with sudo.
** For example to add missing Hindi language I'd download http://pootle.sugarlabs.org/langpacks/0.94/hi_lang_pack_v2.sh and run the command ''sudo hi_lang_pack_v2.sh''
* After this open the file /usr/share/sugar/extensions/cpsection/language/model.py for edit.
* Under the function read_all_languages() you'll find some lines like "locales.append(('Pashto','Afganistan','ps_AF.utf8'))
* Add similar line for your language. For Hindi it would be locales.append(('Hindi','India','hi_HI.utf8'))
** Note that 'Hindi' and 'India' can be anything you want it to be displayed in language drop down menu. 'hi_HI.utf8' must be the correct code for your langpack.
* Now save the file and restart sugar.
* You should find your new language in settings -> Langauge.
