# Change a Story's language

Flowriter can automatically generate content in a [variety of languages](/flowriter/getting-started/supported-languages.md):

* Story titles inside in Epic
* Step text and notes inside a Story flowchart
* Acceptance Criteria inside a Story
* Comments in Test Scripts inside a Story (test script source code is generated in Javascript)

In the Story, click the **Story settings** button on the toolbar:

On the popup, update the content generation language:

{% hint style="warning" %}
This will not modify any other part of the Story including the flowchart and any existing generated content. \
\
You can re-generate content in the new language if required using the **Generate** button after saving the Story settings.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
If you re-generate a Story's content after changing the language, the flowchart steps and notes (and the User Journeys that are extracted from it) remain in the original language they were written in.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
If you manually create a Story flowchart in one language, you can generate the User Story content such as Acceptance Criteria and Test Script comments in a different language.&#x20;

Flowriter will handle the translation for you.

For example, if you create a flowchart with `English` text and set that Story's language to `norsk (Norwegian)` Flowriter will retain the flowchart (and User Journeys) in `English` and generate Acceptance Criteria and Test Script comments in `norsk (Norwegian)`.

This might be useful if you need to generate documentation that targets different audiences.
