3. Update Publishing API

Example PR

In Publishing API:

• Add the locale key to config/application.rb

4. Update Government Frontend

Example PR

In Government Frontend:

1. Add the new locale to config/application.rb and config/locales/en.yml
2. Run rake translation:regenerate to regenerate all translations from the EN locale
3. Run rake translation:import[locale,path] to import a specific locale CSV to YAML within the app. You can also use rake translation:import:all[directory] to import all locales but there’s no timeline for how frequently this is done, so you can expect many translation values to be missing in non EN locales.
4. In config/locales/<new_locale>.yml add the language translation under the language_names key
