+# Translation
+
+Terminator has been translated to multiple languages and locales, but there is always
+work to do, so everyone is welcome to help and contribute.
+
+You can find all translations under the `po` directory, which will be compiled and
+installed with Terminator.
+
+Translations are managed on Transifex [transifex.com/terminator],
+anyone is free to join the project and start translating.
+
+You should read the [Getting Started as a Translator] guide.
+
+_Questions or problems?_ Please reach out on [Gitter] or [open an issue].
+
+## Updating POT
+
+The POT file is the template for all translations and is generated from the Python
+source code.
+
+    cd po/
+    ./genpot.sh
+    git diff terminator.pot
+
+To generate and handle POT and PO files, you will need at least `gettext` and `intltool` installed.
+
+Usually the POT file is automatically synced to Transifex, but it can be manually pushed:
+
+    tx push --source
+
+## Updating Translations
+
+Transifex is configured to automatically open a pull-request when a language has been
+fully translated. A manual update is always possible and might be useful when preparing
+a release.
+
+    tx pull --all
+
+You can also push translations changed outside of Transifex back to the service:
+
+    tx push --translations --language XX
