## Using Dictionary Values in Document Types

In some cases, you might want to render the dictionary values in the Document Type. This is to display the labels depending on the language configured for the logged-in user.

To use dictionary values in the Document Type, follow these steps:

1. Go to the **Settings** section.
2. Open the Document Type where you want to use the Dictionary value.
3. Locate the label and type `#MyDictionaryKey`. For example: `#Welcome` or `#WelcomeDescription`.

4. Click **Save**.
5. Go to the **Content** section.
6. View the content node using the Welcome property. The property will display the dictionary value per the user's configured backoffice language.

You can translate tabs and property groups in the backoffice as well. For more information, see [How to Translate Umbraco Backoffice Document Types](https://www.youtube.com/embed/OayHhOf47LA?si=iRZ7NE-ckv9LjrSv) video.
