Translation

If a user wants to translate their module from English to German then they need to follow the path app/code/Webkul/MpMassUpload/i18n in their unzipped Magento 2 MpMassUpload folder and will get a CSV file with the 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/MpMassUpload/i18n where they have installed Magento 2 (Adobe Commerce)  on the server. The module will get translated into the German Language. It supports both RTL and LTR languages.
