+# Translate Custom Variables Magento 2
+
+This is the official Translate Custom Variables Magento 2 extension. With this module it is possible to use custom variables in translatable strings in CMS elements.
+
+## How does it work?
+
+1. For example, you have a custom variable with code free_shipping_cost, and you want to place it in a translatable string in a CMS Block or CMS Page
+2. To do this, the prefix "customVar_" must be placed before the custom variable code in the translation string
+3. As: {{trans "Free Shipping from %free_shipping" free_shipping=customVar_free_shipping_cost}}
+
+The %free_shipping will be replaced by the value from the custom variable free_shipping_cost.
+
