taginfo collects the short descriptions for all keys and tags from the Wiki in
all available languages and shows them in the language you have chosen. Also
there is a list of all available translations for a key/tag like this:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/highway#wiki

If you change the description of a key/tag on the wiki or add one, taginfo will
automatically pick it up, usually the next day.

This data is also available as an API.

Hello Ramneek

You are not quite clear if you want translations for a new project or if
you want to add translations of tags to an existing project.

If it is the later:

- the OpenStreetMap website is translated on
http://transwiki.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
- the iD editor (including its presets)
https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/id-editor/
- the JOSM editor https://translations.launchpad.net/josm/+translations

Note in all cases the actual tag values are not translated, simply the
labels used to identify them in the editor presets.

There is further a more principle problem that in OSM real world objects
tend to be identified by tag combinations that have grown historically.
It is not guaranteed that literal translations of individual tag keys
and values will actually result in a better and easier user experience
than simply leaving them in English.

If you are looking for translation tools/platforms for a new project,
transifex seems to be the most popular currently.

Simon
