Hi WPML Team

Please help me suggesting an approach for translating my website to local (Montenegrin) language. The web address is hidden link

Currently it is English and Russian language and i want to add my local language as well. Now the Montenegrin translation is not available directly under the list of site languages, but a similar (Serbian) language is available. My questions are:

1. Will the system use Latin alphabet for translating to Serbian?
2. Will it be possible that once the translation is done, i can make changes / corrections?
3. Will it be possible to change the default Serbian flag to Montenegrin flag?

Please contact if you need any further details.

Looking forward to your reply.

Regards
Team Montenegro Properties
