Hello

I followed up the steps in creating custom language with keys as example below but it does not working.

[https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/tutorial-multi-language.html](https://zoom.github.io/sample-app-web/tutorial-multi-language.html)

```
var langArray = ['de-DE', 'es-ES', 'en-US', 'fr-FR', 'jp-JP', 'pt-PT','ru-RU', 'zh-CN', 'zh-TW', 'myCustomLanguageCode'];

//set the userLangTemplate variable to a default language code.
var userLangTemplate = $.i18n.getAll("en-US");

//Define the userLangDict variable, you can use the language-key-value.json file to determine which keys to set the custom language for UI.
var userLangDict = Object.assign({}, userLangTemplate, {'apac.toolbar_leave': 'Leave Now', 'apac.wc_leave_meeting': '不要会议', 'apac.wc_joining_meeting': 'Join a Meeting', "apac.wc_quality": "Video Quality"});

//Set the userLangDict and custom code language in the internationalization.load method.
$.i18n.load(userLangDict, "myLangauge");
```

Hey @selda,

What specifically is not working? Are you getting any errors?

Please see this thread which has a working example:

> [@Web SDK - Can the operation button be customized in Chinese?](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/web-sdk-can-the-operation-button-be-customized-in-chinese/8420/7):
>
> Hey @qiumeihui, I have put the $.i18n.reload("zh-CN"); here: import { ZoomMtg } from '@zoomus/websdk'; ZoomMtg.preLoadWasm(); ZoomMtg.prepareJssdk(); // I have jquery globally declare var $ $.i18n.reload("zh-CN"); Can you please share your code so I can help debug? Thanks, Tommy

Thanks,  
Tommy
