# Supported Languages

> ZeroTwo supports 11 languages for both the interface and AI responses.

ZeroTwo is built for a global audience. You can use ZeroTwo in 11 languages — your language setting affects both the interface text and ZeroTwo's default response language.

## RTL (Right-to-Left) Support

Arabic and Hebrew are fully supported with **right-to-left layout rendering**. When you select Arabic or Hebrew as your language:

* The entire ZeroTwo interface mirrors to RTL layout
* Text input fields, menus, panels, and navigation all render correctly in RTL
* Canvas mode supports RTL text editing
* AI responses in Arabic and Hebrew render with proper RTL alignment

<Info>
  RTL support applies to the ZeroTwo interface. The behavior of embedded third-party content (e.g., web search sources) depends on those sources' own RTL support.

## Response Language Behavior

Your language setting affects both the interface and ZeroTwo's default response language. Here's how it works in practice:

**When language is set to English:**

* The interface shows in English
* ZeroTwo responds in English by default

**When language is set to Spanish:**

* The interface shows in Spanish
* ZeroTwo responds in Spanish by default

**When you write in a different language than your setting:**
ZeroTwo typically responds in the language you **wrote in**, regardless of your setting. For example, if your setting is English but you write a message in French, ZeroTwo will usually reply in French.

**To force a specific response language:** include it explicitly in your prompt: "Respond in German", "Répondez en français", "日本語で答えてください"

## AI Model Language Support

Most major AI models support multilingual input and output. However, quality varies:

| Language Support Level       | Models / Notes                                         |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| Excellent (all major models) | English                                                |
| Very good                    | Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese |
| Good                         | Arabic, Russian, Hindi                                 |
| Variable                     | Hebrew (quality depends on the specific model)         |

<Note>
  English typically gets the best results across all 95+ models. For other languages, results are generally excellent but may vary between models. Some models are specifically stronger in certain languages — for example, Qwen models excel at Chinese, Japanese, and Korean; DeepSeek models have strong Chinese language support.

## Tips for Multilingual Use

<Tip>
  If you're working in multiple languages in the same session, you can **explicitly specify the language in each prompt** regardless of your global setting: "Answer this in Spanish:", "Translate to Japanese:", etc. This gives you precise per-message control.
</Tip>

**Choosing the right model for non-English languages:**

* **Chinese (Simplified):** Qwen Max, DeepSeek Chat, GLM 4.6 (ZAI)
* **Japanese:** Qwen Max, Claude Sonnet, GPT-4o
* **Arabic:** GPT-4o, Claude Sonnet
* **Hindi:** GPT-4o, Claude Sonnet, Gemini Pro
* **Russian:** GPT-4o, Claude Sonnet, Mistral Large

**For translation tasks:** any premium model handles translation well. GPT-4o and Claude Sonnet are particularly reliable for nuanced translation work.
