Supported languages

These are the languages supported by the DeepL API.

Please note that Arabic and Chinese (traditional) have not yet been added to the /languages endpoint because these languages do not yet support document translation; only text translation is supported for Arabic and Chinese (traditional) at this time. When document translation support is added for these languages, we will a) remove this note and b) add the languages to the /languages endpoint where appropriate.

Supported languages for text improvement (DeepL API for Write) have also not yet been added to the /languages endpoint.
