For the multilingual support, an admin will navigate through Store->Configuration->General ->Locale Options and select the locale as German (the language into which admin wants to translate his store content).
Module Translation of Marketplace Favourite Seller
If a user wants to translate their module from English to German then they need to follow the path app/code/Webkul/MpFavouriteSeller/i18n in their unzipped folder and will get a CSV file with name “en_US.csv”. Now they will rename that CSV as “de_DE.csv” and translate all right side content after the comma in the German language.
After editing the CSV, save it and then upload it to the path app/code/Webkul/MpFavouriteSeller/i18n where they have installed Magento 2 on the server. The module will get translated into the German Language. It supports both RTL and LTR languages.
The user can edit the CSV like the image below.
