$CONFIG language_to_locale_mapping

Language to locale mapping.

Some features support mapping a language to a locale setting (for example date presentations). In this setting the mapping between language (key) and locale setting (values) can be configured.

For example if you wish to present English dates in USA format make the mapping 'en' => ['en_US'], or if you wish to use UK format 'en' => ['en_UK'].

It's possible to configure the locale mapping for mulitple languages, for example: [ 'en' => ['en_US', 'en_UK'], 'nl' => ['nl_NL'], ]

It's also possible to add new languages to the supported languages: [ 'my_language' => [], // no locale mapping 'my_language2' => ['en_US'], // using USA locale mapping ]
