Go to http://www.magentocommerce.com/langs 2. Click on the "Select" link by the desired language 3. It takes you to the translations page where you can choose the version and theme. Here you click on "Submit" button 4. You are now at the language page and have the option to download the "Full package" via the link provided. Hope this helps.
