Hello Kobo users!
I use Enketo to collect data in Lao and the default language is English.
It has happened a few times now that when participants fill in the questionnaire in the field, the questions are displayed in Thai and not in Lao. I don’t understand how this is possible as the translation into Lao was done manually and I didn’t add Thai as an additional language.
Can anyone explain how this can happen and deal with?
Thank you!
Welcome to the community, @valynx! The Lao language code should be lo as this site outlines here. Feel free to use it correctly as outlined in these support articles:
Thanks, I actually used the other ISO code for Lao language (lao).
Just out of curiosity, if the translation is done manually, why does having a different language code sometimes affect the display of the questions?
@valynx, you will need to feed the language code to the project/form so that the system will be able to identify and perform as expected.
