Facebook will now let you post your status in 44 languages
- 8 years ago
Facebook has announced a new tool that aims to break down language barriers.
Previously available for Pages on the social network, the multilingual composer is set to make its way to individuals' accounts as well.
Previously anyone who wanted to post bi-, tri- or multilingual status updates would have to either type out each language as a separate post, or post a lengthy status featuring multiple translations.
The latest change means that you can write in, say, French, and only friends and followers with their language set to French will see it.
When the multilingual composer hits your account you'll see a new 'Write post in another language' option at the bottom of the status composition box.
