The language displayed depends on the following criteria:

  • If (for example) Welsh is added and Preferred Spoken Language is ticked, then Welsh displays
  • If Welsh is added without Preferred Spoken Language being ticked, then Welsh displays
  • If Welsh and English are both added and English has the Preferred Spoken Language ticked, English displays
  • If Welsh and English are both added and neither of them, or both of them has Preferred Spoken Language ticked, then the last added language displays.

    Note - English and Welsh are used in the above scenarios for demonstration purposes only, this would apply to any languages selected.
