The Language block is a Translate Extension block and a reporter block in Scratch 3.0. This block returns the Scratch website language of the current user, unless the language is not available in the dropdown for the Translate () to () block, and will instead report "English". Additionally, all languages that are not the same as the ones in the Translate () to () block are changed to match the dropdown. In addition, 22 languages report as lower case (whereas all other languages report as upper case):
- български (Bulgarian)
- català (Catalan)
- čeština (Czech)
- eesti (Estonian)
- español (Spanish)
- euskara (Basque)
- galego (Galicia)
- hrvatski (Croatian)
- isiZulu (Zulu)[a]
- íslenska (Icelandic)
- latvieŝu (Latvian)
- lietuvių (Lithuanian)
- magyar (Hungarian)
- norsk (Norwegian)
- polski (Polish)
- русский (Russian)
- slovenčina (Slovak)
- slovenščina (Slovene)
- српски (Serbian)
- suomi (Finnish)
- svenska (Swedish)
- українська (Ukrainian)
Notes:
- ↑ Beginning is intentionally lower case to match how it's spelt in its original language
