Hello @Stratis1,

Nice to meet you. No need to worry, Greek was already included in the original list and you can select the language you would like, here. 

You might also be interested to know you can actually read this Airbnb Updates post in Greek, here in the Community Center, here is the link.

I hope you find this useful. 

Thanks,

Hello @Anonymous,

I would love to make my listing available in more languages than English but as far as i can see you have have to choose one language and you can't add other languages to English. Is this correct? 

[Lizzie]

Hello @Dawn-Maria0,

It's great to hear you would like to translate you listing into other languages. It's such a great talent. 

You can actually add your listing description in multiple languages. 🙂 Here is the useful Help Center article which details this, but I've also added it below:

1. Click Manage listing on the listing you want to edit
2. Click Listing details at the top of the page
3. Scroll to the Description section and click Edit
4. Click Add language
5. Choose a language, then click OK
6. Click Save

It would be great to hear how you get on. 🙂

Thanks,

Lizzie

It would be great if you could add Afrikaans as well at a later date. Afrikaans is the second most speaking language in South Africa and Namibia after English. It also is the only language born in modern times that developed up to tertiary level.
