I would like to write a document in Malay language using LaTeX. The problems here are how to change Figure/Table to Malay language.
Table = Jadual (Malay)
Figure = Rajah (Malay)
@mzaini: To change a command, you could use the \renewcommand{}{}.
Change Figure to Rajah:
\renewcommand{\figurename}{Rajah}
Change Table to Jadual:
\renewcommand{\tablename}{Jadual}

Be aware that this will not work if you are using Babel. If you are just looking for the translation (e.g. you want it in Dutch) you should use
\usepackage[english,dutch]{babel}
Mind the order of the languages (first english, then your language; so in order of low priority first).
If you still want to use the command you should check out http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=latexwords
@Elyseum: Thanks for the info about Babel.
how i can write in 2 languages in a chapter??
for example english,greek:
\gr\chapter{???????? \en {abc} }
but this is not correct!!! how???
@john: You could use
\selectlanguagecommand.For example,
yes, but i can’t do this in headings like chapter, section,…
for example:
\documentclass{report}
\renewcommand{\chaptername}{Bab}
\usepackage[greek,british]{babel}
\begin{document}
%here how i will change language… i want to use in chapter english and greek!!! both!!!
\chapter{Introduction, i want to write here in greek and kai elliniko keimeno ???????? ???????}
Testing
\end{document}
@john: Place the \selectlanguage command before the \chapter command.
yes, but i want to write both, greek and english inside the “command” \chapter{english chapter “gfvhvhvgh”, ????? ??????}
for example:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[greek,british]{babel}
\begin{document}
%\selectlanguage{greek}
\chapter{greek chapter, i want to write here also in english!!!!! and i cant!!!!!!english and greek together!!!}
\selectlanguage{greek}
Greek text goes here
%\selectlanguage{british}
\chapter{english chapter, i want to write here also in greek and i cant!!!!!! english and greek together!!!}
\selectlanguage{british}
English text goes here
\end{document}
——————————————————-
\selectlanguage{greek}
\chapter{greek chapter, i want to write here also in english!!!!! and i cant!!!!!!english and greek together!!!}
with this command i will write only in greek
how can i write english and greek together inside chapter ????
