As of 2017, it appears that the Angular team is too busy and too few to add right-to-left (rtl) support to the angular-translate module (https://github.com/angular-translate/angular-translate/issues/260).

Not a big deal though, because it's pretty easy to do this with just native JS...

document.body.setAttribute("dir", "rtl");

In my experience, HTML5 does a pretty good job of getting rtl support done correctly.
