mathieuB-48	Background of the issue: I need to be able to automatically translate content into British English on my site hidden link. It is surprising that WPML, which uses the British flag for the English language, only offers translation into American English. I do not want to manually change all 'z' in 's' (like in 'organization') manually, as this is a total waste of time since Deepl supports British English. Symptoms: WPML only offers translation into American English instead of British English. Questions: How can I set up automatic translation into British English using WPML?

Currently, WPML only supports one English language: English US. There is a feature request to support the English UK for automatic translation, it has been escalated to our development team. I will add your ticket there to increase the priority and I will update you here when I have more information. Thanks for your patience.

danJ-7	Hi Long, I'd like to request the addition of British English (en-GB) for automatic translation, as previously mentioned by another user. Please add my request to help prioritize this feature. If you have any news, I would also appreciate it. Thanks!
