In XperienCentral, the default language is the language that is selected in the language drop-down at the top of the sidebars (or in the Language Widget in XperienCentral versions R31 and lower) each time you start a new XperienCentral session. All content items that you create in XperienCentral are created in the default content language if you do not switch languages in the Language Widget. The default content language in XperienCentral is also used when a developer creates content using the Java API without explicitly specifying a language.
...
Multiple language versions of content items exist parallel to each other. For pages and page sections, the tree structures are identical. For all content items, the title of the language versions can be different as well as the workflow status. In almost all cases, different language versions of content items have different content than their parallel language versions. To switch between the language versions of your website content, use the language drop-down at the top of the sidebars or the Language Widget in XperienCentral versions R31 and lower.

Dynamic Content Overviews and Content Overviews
...
For each language that XperienCentral supports, you can enable and configure a fallback language. If there is no current content item version in the requested language, then the version in the fallback language for the desired content item is shown. To enable the fallback language functionality, select "Use another language if language is not available" in Configuration > Channel Configuration > General tab. See Channel Configuration for more information.
...
- In order to determine the language version of an article, image, download or other custom content items, XperienCentral will retrieve the content item in the current language or use the fallback language. If the correct language version of a content item cannot be found, no link to it will appear in content, Dynamic Content Overviews, etc.
- The current page or another configured page will be used to show the content item, otherwise the "Display on" page will be used.
- If the correct page still cannot be determined, use the "Default Content Repository page" in the current language or use the fallback language version if applicable.
- If the correct page still cannot be determined, use the home page in the current language or use the fallback language version if applicable
- If the correct page still cannot be determined, show the title of the content item, however it will not be clickable.
For complete information on configuring a fallback language for a language, see Language Labels and the General tab of Channel Configuration.
