Prosenjit Barman WPML Supporter since 03/2023 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Dhaka (GMT+06:00)	Hi There, Thanks for contacting WPML Support. I understand what you're looking for. The languages you've mentioned are variations of English language and they are not listed in WPML's default language selection. If you want to translate and display content into these specific variations, you will need to manually add the languages into WPML. To understand how you can add a custom language, please check this guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/editing-wpmls-languages-table/ I hope it will help in achieving what you're looking for. Please feel free to let me know if there is anything else you need help with. I will be happy to assist. Best regards, Prosenjit
