Your website can have multiple versions (locales) in different languages.
By applying multiple languages, you can connect a specific content type to a specific locale. This means certain content can be targeted at a specific website dedicated to a certain country or language users.
Email templates (like shop email templates) can be translated into additional languages, which allows you to customize your notification system and bring your services closer to your customers.
Here, you can learn how to manage language settings and add new languages.
