We recommend you follow the updates on this issue on our errata page.

Problem: You are working on a site under development and managing a large database caused by WPML. You have a glossary that is not functioning correctly, which works on a staging site but has issues in the production environment. The main symptoms include a huge list of strings that are either not used or linked to the wrong translation data, and the glossary itself has an error preventing its use. Solution: We discovered that the English language was mapped under an incorrect language code on our servers. We corrected this mapping for your site, which resolved the glossary error. It's possible that this issue was due to human error or a technical exception.
