Python tkinter create multi language software

Question

I am working on my own text editor. I want my text editor to be in English and in Spanish. How can I let the user choose between the two languages and that it updates Immediately?

Answer 1

This is a way you can do it. code 2 function for your program to change the language of every single label you have. changing name of the title (as shown below), name of buttons, menus, and so on.

import tkinter as Tk


def change_language_eng():
    root.title('Program')
    menuButton.config(text='Menu')


def change_language_spa():
    root.title('Programa')
    menuButton.config(text='Menú')

    
root = Tk.Tk()
root.title('Program')
menuButton = Tk.Button(root, text='Menu')
engButton = Tk.Button(root, text='English', command=change_language_eng)
spaButton = Tk.Button(root, text='Spanish', command=change_language_spa)
menuButton.grid(row=0, column=0)
engButton.grid(row=1, column=0)
spaButton.grid(row=2, column=0)
root.mainloop()
