Hi, I'm using English as the default language with the locale en_US. Our customer now wants to add a new english version for USA. How do I go about adding this? Can I change the default locale to en_GB and add the US version as en_US or do I mess up the existing translations?

Thank you for contacting WPML support.

I’ve gone through the chat and understand that you have already added a new English language with a different locale.

If you’re experiencing an issue related to this, could you please provide more details? This will help me better understand the problem and assist you more effectively.
