Hi All,

The languages that we see in the supported locale dropdownlist  are retrieved from the .net framework in our system or in the server where the site resides.   If we want to add a new language on to the DNN add the langauge ( language is defined by two things i.e Culture and Region) on to the .net framework using any of the  .net programming languages. we will have to use CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder class for that. Further information is available in MSDN. (LINK: ).

ASP.net 2.0: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172469(VS.80).aspx

ASP.Net 3.5: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172469.aspx

Before registering edit your language display name , langauge native name  and other language specific attributes of the CRIB (CultureRegionInfoBuilder) a. After registering the new  culture restart the system and go to the site and look at your language that has been added to the Dropdownlist. Now we can localize it and download the language pack for further use.. ..You can see my posts in this link:

..... and for all this information I should thank Mr.Sebastian Leupold, who took me through the right way.. thank you again

Note: To translate we need a IME( Input Method Editor) of that corresponding laguage. We can get that options in the Region and Language setting in Control Panel.
