Description

I use lichess.org allmost all the days and I do it thanks it's accessibility mode ON, which turns the website in something simplified and more screen reader friendly. I simple would like to contributing for my blind friend helping them to play on a translated website but the strings of this special area of lichess are not within the online tool that everybody uses to translate.

So. I'm kindly asking to staff to let them available somehow so I can translate them in my mother language. I could do the trick even out of that online tool, if needed, just explain me what I have to do. Thanks. Gabe.
