Canvas - Indicate Language in Canvas

Step 1

Access your content in the Rich Content Editor (RCE), and select HTML Editor in the RCE toolbar.

Step 2

Find the specific phrase that is in a different language, and type "<span lang="xx">" immediately before it. Replace "xx" with your particular language code listed below. This example is using "es" for the Spanish language code.

  • Chinese: "zh"
  • French: "fr"
  • German: "de"
  • Italian: "it"
  • Japanese: "ja"
  • Korean: "ko"
  • Russian: "ru"
  • Spanish: "es"

Use the language code list for languages not listed here.

Step 3

Go to the end of the phrase and type "</span>".

Everything outside of the opening and closing <span> tags will be pronounced in an English manner; everything inside them will be pronounced according to the language specified.
