Riffaz Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Colombo (GMT+05:30)	Hi, Thank you for contacting WPML support. Regarding the Language URL : Language URL structure is the base for everything built in WPML and you can choose the language URL from three formats only: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/#language-url-format So, what you are trying is simply not possible. This is how WordPress work. This is how WPML works. 🙂 Regarding changing the language name : - Go to WPML >> Languages >> Site Languages. - Click on link "Edit Languages" - Adjust the names in the columns, example screenshot I have attached. - And press "Save". screenshot: https://wpml.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/1189091-Change_language_switcher_label.png This should solve the issue. Let me know if you need anything else regarding this. Regards, Riffaz.
