There was also an update to be able to read the preferred locale from the user’s browser. If you go to Custom Fields and set the Preferred Locale field as publicly updatable, there’s no other action you need to take. Mautic will recognize the locale from the browser, and if you have the translation created properly on the email you’ll be able to use just one email in the campaign.

The Mautic documentation on translations seems to be a bit lacking, but here’s what I could find:

> **[Localization and language translation | Campaign Studio | Acquia Product...](https://docs.acquia.com/campaign-studio/channels/emails/localization-language-translation)**
>
> Campaign Studio’s translations feature allows you to send the appropriate translations of content, such as emails and landing pages, based on the contact’s preferred language.

> [@Ability to create multilingual emails](https://forum.mautic.org/t/ability-to-create-multilingual-emails/28957/4):

> Thanks @joeyk. I tried to do it this way from the very beginning, but it didn’t work. As it turned out, the problem was that I thought that the locale of the contact was determined by the “Country” parameter in the “Address” section and I didn’t see the “Preferred Locale” parameter. Thank you so much for your help!

[https://docs.mautic.org/en/5.x/channels/emails.html#translations](https://docs.mautic.org/en/5.x/channels/emails.html#translations)

Forms can’t be translated (unless that’s an update in 5.x), but you could use dynamic web content on your page to show one form if the preferred locale is English and a different form for German (you can use any other languages too, of course).

Hope that helps!
