                  <p>The fallback language appears when no content is available for the currently
                    selected language. For example, imagine that a site visitor chooses Japanese from the
                    language selector but your site doesn’t have a Japanese translation for that page. In that
                    case, content is shown in the fallback language. </p>
                  <p style="margin-bottom:0;">Only one level of fallback language is
                    supported for LWR sites. For example, if French (Canadian) falls back to French, then
                    your site’s default language is the only fallback language allowed for French.

                <td data-label="Description" class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;" headers="d52680e145 ">You can define a display label for each language. The display label appears in any
                  Language Selector components that you add to your site and in the Experience Builder’s
                  built-in language menu.</td>
