0%
Description
After I installed Chinese (zh) language packs, switching the backend language to zh has no effect. I opened some language files in var/labels/zh and found there are no <trans-unit> tags at all inside. Here is one of the files, zh/webhooks/Resources/Private/Language/zh.locallang_db.xlf:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xliff xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2" version="1.2">
<file source-language="en" datatype="plaintext" original="EXT:webhooks/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_db.xlf" date="2023-01-11T20:22:32Z" product-name="webhooks" target-language="zh">
<header/>
<body>
</body>
</file>
</xliff>
I also was unable to download zh_CN language packs. The TYPO3 log shows 404 errors when downloading those packs.

By the way, installed Japanese (ja) pack and was able to switch the backend language to Japanese.

Unfortunately the translation status for Chinese Simplified (zh-CN) is currently very poor.
For the v12 branch only 12% of the labels are translated and 0% are approved. Only approved labels are exported to the xlf files.
You can see the translation status here:

The TYPO3 Translation Team will happily support you (and others) with the translation to Chinese.
For starters, please check this documentation:

If you have any questions regarding translations, please join our TYPO3 Slack channel #typo3-localization-team (https://typo3.slack.com/archives/CR75200FL) or contact us via Crowdin or email (localization@typo3.org).
