=================

When you want to translate a page in the page tree you create an
"alternative page language" record on that page. This contains fields
similar to that of the page record of the default language which you fill in

copy of it with a new language relation. Use the module :guilabel:`Page` and on the top of the right side
:guilabel:`Language Comparison` and the lower dropdown :guilabel:`Create a new translation of this page`.
As soon as you choose a language of this dropdown the translation process will start with the copy of this page.

The page copy will be generated in the default language with page property fields like title or description prefixed by a text similar to "[Translate to Language X:]".

its contents cannot be translated, no matter how many system languages
have been defined.
