# How Languages Work in Contentstack

Contentstack offers multilingual support, which allows you to create entries in any language of your choice. When creating entries in other languages, they inherit data initially from the [fallback language](/docs/headless-cms/about-fallback-languages) until they are localized.

Therefore, in order to understand how languages work in Contentstack, you will need to first understand [data inheritance](/docs/headless-cms/about-data-inheritance), [fallback languages](/docs/headless-cms/about-fallback-languages), and [localization](/docs/headless-cms/about-localization).
