When your language's alphabet are all included in the below, what you have to do is making Finnish.cfg, Finnish_help.txt.
You can see English.cfg and English_help at algodoo.com/translations/
Btw, there is old type cfg-file for Finnish. Suomi.cfg (for Phun beta 4.21) In addition, there is Suomi.png

Kewl, im now working on it

It isnt very hard to make a Translation.. (unless you dont know the lanquage your gonna do very well) You just gotta have aLOTTTTT of time on your hands..

There are 628 "=" in English.cfg. It means translators work on about 628 words/phrases needed to be translated. When you know Algodoo enough, you are able to translate 1 phrase / minute into your language. So 11 hours are enough to translate.

[Sniperkasa]

Eww 11 hours well 1 done 10 to go xD

[Mr. crash]

woo! I will download that straight when you have finished it.

1 minute per word?! More like 5 seconds

[Sniperkasa]

I'm about half way now
Just wondering what I'll do to words that dont exist in my language ?

[tatt61880]

Cool.

In my opinion, you don't have to make new word.
Just explain what the English word means by tool-tip.

[Sniperkasa]

Well a tiny problem, if I translated every word so far.. why should i stop suddenly..

[tatt61880]

If possible, translate every word.
In Japan (I'm a Japanese), there is a way to notate pronunciations of an English word by using Japanese characters. So I used this way to translate "toggle" (I cannot find good Japanese word for this word) and added tool-tip for "toggle".
However, "Paused" is still "Paused" in Japanese.cfg. It is possible to translate "Paused" into Japanese by using same way with "toggle" but I decided not to translate it because I thought more than 50% of Japanese will be confused by translating this word.

[Sniperkasa]

I found a buggy 0.0
It does'nt change language!!

[Rhett97]

What do you mean? Because i think you have the same problem i had.. just farther down the list it'll get into more menu stuff then it'll change.

[Sniperkasa]

Well test it.. when i do change language it just doesnt do anything :/

[Sniperkasa]

Bumptie bumbtie!
ITS REALEASED!!!! Notice me [released thanks to tatt and his bug solving ]

[link0007]

Great! We will go look for someone to read through it a bit, and hopefully it will be good enough to give it an all-clear then all finnish users will be notified of the translation automatically

[Sniperkasa]

Cool! there may be a few flaws, for example words that dont "really" exist that are only used in the main region [helsinki]...
Maybe not but lets wait

[Mr. crash]

I downloaded it

[Mr. crash]

small writing mistakes like ruudukkp and tykalu but it's pretty cool

[Sniperkasa]

Yeah I'm aware it might contain small mistakes like that.. lemme fix those..
