Can you communicate this to a developer? Lichess has not given me an answer

could you please create a way (function) to translate the English (algebraic) notation to Spanish translation?
this would make the Spanish speaker's studies less tiring

Is this possible? I just want to put my games in a .txt in spanish notation, this is very important to me, this helps to not transcribe everything, writing games on paper is very tiring

spanish notation

R= Rey
D= Dama
A= Alfil
C= Caballo
T= Torre

When I write in the papper, i have to transcribe everything, it's more work than necessary, please developers, help
Do you know how to code?

If you could I am sure the devs would show you were you could make the changes yourself.
Actually, it would be a great addition to add different language notations. Our notations are different too. So it really would help the people that can't use english algebraic notation.

I can help with turkish algebraic notation. It is pretty simple.

King=Ş=Şah
Queen=V=Vezir
Rook=K=Kale
Bishop=F=Fil
Knight=A=At
@Utukku Indeed, it really can help a lot of people with lack of resource or limited knowledge of english.
As far as I understand PGN export format requires the use of English letters for output files.

Anyhow, grab a copy of pgn-extract: www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/djb/pgn-extract/
Download PGN file you want to convert and convert notation from command-line with

pgn-extract -s -WsanPCATDR -o output.pgn input.pgn
That is exactly what I was referring to. PGN that you will find under FEN & PGN or the one you download.
Simple text editor (notepad) will do the thrick.

To replace text in Notepad, follow the steps below.
Open the text file in Notepad.
Click Edit on the menu bar, then select Replace in the Edit menu.
Once in the Search and Replace window, enter the text you want to find and the text you want to use as a replacement.

"replace "Q" with "D", and so on...
