# Internationalization

Element Plus components are using English **by default**, if you wish you use other
languages, you can get you answer by keep reading.

## Global configuration

Element Plus provides global configurations

```typescript
import ElementPlus from 'element-plus'
import zhCn from 'element-plus/dist/locale/zh-cn.mjs'

app.use(ElementPlus, {
    locale: zhCn,
})
```

## ConfigProvider

Element Plus also provides a Vue component [ConfigProvider](/zh-CN/component/config-provider)
for globally configuring locale and other settings.

```html
<template>
    <el-config-provider :locale="locale">
        <app />
    </el-config-provider>
</template>

<script>
    import { defineComponent } from 'vue'
    import { ElConfigProvider } from 'element-plus'

    import zhCn from 'element-plus/dist/locale/zh-cn.mjs'

    export default defineComponent({
        components: {
            ElConfigProvider,
        },
        setup() {
            return {
                locale: zhCn,
            }
        },
    })
</script>
```

## CDN Usage

If you are using Element Plus via CDN, then you need to do this, let's again take
unpkg as an example

```html
<script src="//unpkg.com/element-plus/dist/locale/zh-cn"></script>
<script>
    app.use(ElementPlus, {
        locale: ElementPlusLocaleZhCn,
    })
</script>
```
