Language mapping in the Drupal CMS is possible only for one Drupal language and one XTM Cloud language at a time, which means that you cannot a second language mapping for the languages already used in the first language mapping. If you would also like to create a language mapping for a specific language variant, you might need to consider establishing a separate XTM service provider.
