Why is the default Telegram web version not in Chinese?
After entering the Telegram Web version, many users' first reaction is that the interface is in English, Russian or other languages. This is actually because Telegram automatically assigns a default language based on the system language, browser settings or geographic location.
Therefore, if you want to use Telegram's Chinese interface normally, you must set the language manually . Although the operation is simple, many users are not familiar with it.
How to set the Chinese version of Telegram web version?
The following is the standard process for setting up the Chinese interface for the latest version of Telegram Web:
Using the new version of Telegram Web:
1. Open the URL: https://web.telegram.org or https://webk.telegram.org
2. Login account (mobile phone number + verification code)
3. Click the ≡ icon in the upper left corner to enter the "Settings" page
4. Find the "Language" item and click to enter
5. In the language options, select "Chinese (Simplified)" or "Chinese (Traditional)"
After the settings are completed, the Telegram web interface will automatically switch to Chinese.
Special reminder:
l Some old versions of Telegram Web do not support the Chinese language pack. Please try to use the new version link
l Telegram Web uses the browser cache. If you switch devices or clear the cache, you may need to reset the language.
Enable Telegram translation function simultaneously
Many people think that Telegram does not have automatic translation. In fact, you can enable the built-in translation function. Especially when you receive a message in a non-Chinese language, Telegram will automatically display the "Translate" option.
The steps to enable it are as follows:
1. Go to Telegram's Settings
2. Scroll down and find the "Message Translation" option under the "Language" column
3. Enable the automatic translation button
4. Select your favorite language in "Don't Translate" (e.g. Chinese, English)
5. Save settings
In this way, when you receive content in Spanish, French, Russian, etc., a "Translate" button will automatically appear below the message, and it can be converted to the language you set with one click.
What languages does Telegram web translation support?
Although Telegram does not list a complete list of supported languages, most mainstream languages can be translated:
l English, French, German, Japanese, Korean
l Russian, Spanish, Portuguese
l Italian, Arabic, Thai, Vietnamese, etc.
Chinese users can use the translation function in Telegram multilingual groups or international channels to quickly understand, respond and participate in communications.
What if you have higher translation needs?
Although Telegram's native translation function is practical, it still has limitations for cross-border operators, international e-commerce teams, and multilingual community managers. For example:
l Unable to batch translate historical messages
l Unable to set automatic translation mode
l The translation quality depends on the default engine and cannot be optimized for semantics
l Translation rules cannot be set separately under multiple accounts
At this time, you need a professional tool, such as the fbsee aggregate chat system .

Frequently asked Telegram language questions
Q: Why does the group name still display in English after the Telegram web version is switched to Chinese?
A: The group name is user-defined and will not be automatically translated; you can use the translation button to view the corresponding language meaning.
Q: Where is the translation button? I can’t see it.
A: Please make sure that the language of the message you received is not the "no translation language" you set; if the languages are the same, Telegram will not display the translation button by default.
Q: How to synchronize language settings between mobile and web versions?
A: Telegram's language setting is a "device-side setting", which means each device needs to set it separately. If you change your browser or device, you need to reset the Chinese interface.

For cross-border merchants, international teams, and content operators, "language" should not be a threshold, but an efficiency lever. Using the Telegram web version to set Chinese, combined with reasonable translation function settings, can significantly improve communication efficiency.
