 const STORAGE_KEY = "zperiod_lang";
-const SUPPORTED = ["en", "zh", "zh-Hant", "fr", "ru", "fa", "ur", "tl"];
+const SUPPORTED = ["en", "zh", "zh-Hant", "fr", "ru", "fa", "ur", "tl", "es"];


SUPPORTED now includes es, but the language selection UI is still hardcoded elsewhere (e.g., the .lang-option buttons in index.html and the onboarding language buttons). Without adding an es button there, users can’t actually switch to Spanish through the UI even though it’s declared supported here.

The file header comment still lists the supported languages but doesn’t mention Spanish. Since this module now supports es, please update the top-level comment to keep the documentation accurate.

+  },
+  "51": {
+    "name": "Antimonio",
+    "ions": "Sb³⁻ (Antimo niuro), Sb³⁺ (Antimonio(III))",


Typo in the ions string: Sb³⁻ (Antimo niuro) has an unintended space that changes the word. This should be a single word (e.g., “Antimoniuro”).

Suggested change

"ions": "Sb³⁻ (Antimo niuro), Sb³⁺ (Antimonio(III))",

"ions": "Sb³⁻ (Antimoniuro), Sb³⁺ (Antimonio(III))",

+    ],
+    "uses": [
+      "Catalizadores con converter (80% de uso)",


This Spanish translation string mixes English/Spanish: Catalizadores con converter.... Consider translating fully (e.g., using “convertidor catalítico”) to keep terminology consistent for Spanish users.

Suggested change

"Catalizadores con converter (80% de uso)",

"Catalizadores con convertidor catalítico (80% de uso)",

+          {
+            "formula": "Na₂CO₃",
+            "name": "Soda cáustica"


For na_plus, the key compound Na₂CO₃ is labeled “Soda cáustica”, which is typically NaOH. This is likely to confuse students; consider renaming it to “Carbonato de sodio” / “Soda (Na₂CO₃)” to match the formula shown.

Suggested change

"name": "Soda cáustica"

"name": "Carbonato de sodio"

+        "stse": [
+          "LED azул (Premio Nobel)",


Encoding/typo issue: LED azул appears to contain mixed-script characters (likely a Cyrillic “у”), which will render incorrectly and can break search/copy. Replace with plain LED azul.

Suggested change

"LED azул (Premio Nobel)",

"LED azul (Premio Nobel)",

The changelog text says there are “8 idiomas admitidos”, but this PR adds Spanish (es) to the supported list, making the count 9. Update this string (and the corresponding string in other locales) so the in-app changelog doesn’t become incorrect immediately after adding es.

Suggested change

"card3Body": "Las páginas, herramientas y contenido técnico principales ahora cuentan con traducciones más completas en los 8 idiomas admitidos.",

- Fix typo 'Antimo niuro' → 'Antimoniuro' in element 51 - Translate 'converter' to 'convertidor catalítico' in element 45 - Correct Na₂CO₃ label from 'Soda cáustica' to 'Carbonato de sodio' - Replace Cyrillic char in 'LED azul' - Update language count from 8 to 9 in changelog - Add ES to langController header comment - Add Español button to language dropdown in index.html

All feedback addressed in 0ac483f — fixed the typos, translated the mixed EN/ES terms, swapped out the sneaky Cyrillic character, corrected the Na₂CO₃ label, bumped the language count to 9, and added the missing Español button to the UI. Thanks for catching these!
