This is where all translation work for the WP Statistics plugin happens.
WordPress uses a translation system called GlotPress, hosted at translate.wordpress.org. Here’s what you need to know:

Look at the context provided with each string to understand where it will appear in the plugin interface.
Double-check your translation for spelling, grammar, and accuracy before submitting.
