Survey Language

Hey,
I made a survey written in English with Arabic translation. The final version has a drop-down menu for choosing a language, and now I realised that most of the participants are actually Arabic speaking with poor English proficiency so I want to change the base language to Arabic instead. Is that possible without remaking the entire survey from scratch? Any help would be appreciated!
thanks a million in advance!

You can specify the default (starting) language in the panel (if sending/generating invite links) or through the q_lang parameter in the url.

@TomG how would that look like if a survey is programmed in english and german? add "&qlang=de" does not work to make the survey start in German...

Hey @cloof! Check out this page for a full list of available Language Codes!
In the case of "Anonymous Survey Link" where no parameters are attached to the link, add the following after the link:

@hamada: `?Q_lang=AR`
@cloof: `?Q_lang=DE`

In case the link has some parameters attached to it, replace `?` with `&`
