Does abbreviations support multilanguage?

[Vetrenik]

Hello everybody!

Pretty new to material and just tried to use https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/reference/tooltips/#adding-a-glossary in a multilang style described in https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/setup/changing-the-language/ but it seems, that it either does not support multilang, or i'm doing smth wrong

We don't officially support the mkdocs-static-i18n plugin, but recommend to build separate sites for different languages, which is more flexible. The plugin should still work, but you might run into problems when you try to localize something other than Markdown files. You might still be able to achieve what you want, but I, personally, can't help you here. Related discussion:

Thx a lot!

I missed the guide and thought that it's the only way to setup multilang site =)
