Choose the language
Use Universe Memory in one of 15 languages; German is the default.
Purpose
Every employee should be able to use Universe Memory in the language they are most confident in. The chosen language also determines the language in which voice input recognizes your recording.
How it works
- In the page header, click the language button with flag and language code (for example “de”).
- Choose a language from the list: Deutsch, English, Français, Italiano, Español, Polski, Svenska, 中文, Українська, Nederlands, Русский, 日本語, العربية, עברית or हिन्दी.
- The page opens at the same place in the chosen language.
Language and address
German has no language part in the address. Every other language appears as a code at the start of the path, for example /memory/en/ for English. Arabic and Hebrew are displayed from right to left.
If a text is missing in a language, Universe Memory shows the German text in that place. The handbook appears in German and English; the other languages show the English handbook.
What the language affects
- All labels, messages and buttons.
- The recognition language for “Record by voice”: Universe Memory recognizes the recording in the language of the page.
- The language the confirmation link and the sign-in link lead back to.
- Dates in the lists.
Universe Memory writes situation reports and drafts in German, regardless of the chosen language.
Tips
Anyone who speaks German but uses another interface briefly switches to German before a voice recording so that recognition is correct.
