How it works
How to Translate Products to Luxembourgish
Get your product catalog translated and ready to sell in three simple steps
01
Import your products
Connect your e-commerce platform or upload your catalog as a file. WISEPIM takes over titles, descriptions, attributes and categories.
02
AI translates to Luxembourgish
The AI translates your catalog with your glossary, your protected terms and your instructions per market. Numbers, units and model numbers stay as they are.
03
Review and publish
Review the translations and publish them to your sales channels. That way you reach Luxembourgish-speaking customers without going through an agency.
Example
One article: what changes, what stays
An example from a sanitary catalog. Texts and option values are translated. Numbers, units and article numbers stay exactly as they are.
| Field | Your data | In Luxembourgish |
|---|---|---|
| Product name | Thermostatic shower mixer, surface-mounted, DN 15, chrome | Translated, with the terms from your glossary |
| Material (option value) | Brass | Translated once for every product with this value |
| Connection | 1/2" | Stays 1/2" |
| Flow rate | 22 l/min | Stays 22 l/min |
| Article number | TB-4415-CR | Stays TB-4415-CR (protected term) |
In a Catalog Jobs translation run, a text whose numbers, units or protected terms do not match the source waits in the Review queue instead of going live.
Checklist
Luxembourgish Product Information Checklist
Make sure your product data is complete and optimized for Luxembourgish-speaking customers
Product Content
- Build titles in the order your channel expects: brand, product type, key spec, model
- Keep article numbers, EANs and model codes untranslated as protected terms
- Use one term per concept across the whole catalog, set in your glossary
- Translate safety notes and claims exactly, and never add new ones
- Check that bullet points name the same specs as the source
Attributes and Specifications
- Translate option values once per attribute, not per product
- Keep spec values identical: DN 15, 1/2" and 22 l/min stay as they are
- Write decimals and thousands the way the target market does
- Mark brand and series names as never translate
- Check units the market writes differently, without changing the value
SEO and Discoverability
- Keep meta titles under 60 and meta descriptions under 160 characters
- Use the search terms buyers in the market use, not literal translations
- Translate the alt text of your images
- Map your categories to the category names of the market
- Set hreflang tags for every language version

Culture and language
Luxembourgish Culture and Language Insights
Understanding the local culture is key to successful product translations
Recommended Tone and Style
Use a Mixed tone with a professional, respectful, clear, multilingual-aware style when writing product descriptions.
Key Considerations
- Multilingualism is paramount; while Luxembourgish is official, French and German are widely used in business and daily life. Content strategy should reflect this.
- High expectations for quality and precision in all communications, reflecting the country's high standard of living.
- Punctuality and reliability are highly valued, particularly concerning delivery times and customer service.
- Strong emphasis on data privacy and security, requiring transparent policies and secure payment options.
- Consumers are accustomed to cross-border shopping, so competitive pricing and international shipping options are important.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Assuming a single language (e.g., only French or German) is sufficient without considering the local preference for Luxembourgish in certain contexts.
- Underestimating the importance of high-quality, professional translations; Luxembourgish speakers are exposed to multiple high-standard languages.
- Not adapting payment methods to local preferences, such as Digicash (Payconiq) which is popular.
- Failing to provide clear and comprehensive information regarding shipping, returns, and privacy policies.
Translation tips
- Engage native Luxembourgish translators who understand the nuances and cultural context, especially the interplay with French and German.
- For broader appeal, consider offering content in French and German alongside Luxembourgish, prioritizing based on specific product or target audience.
- Be aware of loanwords from French and German; ensure they are used appropriately and consistently within the Luxembourgish text.
- Maintain a professional yet approachable tone, reflecting the mixed formality level. Avoid overly casual language in business contexts.
- Ensure all legal texts, terms and conditions, and privacy policies are accurately translated and compliant with Luxembourgish and EU regulations.

Local SEO
Local SEO Tips for Luxembourgish
Optimize your product content for search engines in Luxembourgish-speaking markets
- Target a trilingual keyword strategy: Incorporate Luxembourgish (e.g., "Buttek Lëtzebuerg," "Epicerie Esch"), French (e.g., "magasin Luxembourg," "épicerie Esch-sur-Alzette"), and German (e.g., "Geschäft Luxemburg," "Lebensmittelgeschäft Esch") keywords, as users switch between languages for searches.
- Prioritize Google My Business (GMB) optimization: Ensure accurate and comprehensive listings for all physical locations in Luxembourg, with services and products described in all three official languages (Luxembourgish, French, German).
- Utilize local directories and news sites for link building: Focus on acquiring backlinks from reputable Luxembourgish platforms like Editus.lu, Yellow.lu, RTL.lu, L'essentiel, and local municipality websites.
- Implement hreflang tags correctly for multilingual content: Crucial for specifying content versions for Luxembourgish (lb), French (fr-lu), German (de-lu), and English (en-lu) to avoid duplicate content issues and target the right audience.
- Consider a .lu ccTLD: A country-code top-level domain (.lu) signals strong local relevance and trust to both users and search engines within Luxembourg.
