We've just recently developed function to set other preferred fall-backs.
e.g. We could set up a fallback chain like this :
Català --> Español --> English
if a phrase is missing from Català , Loomio will use the Español phrase, and if that is missing then it will use the English phrase
What we want to know is :
If your language were to have a fall-back language, what would you like it to be?

For Basque, Spanish (or French) would be much better than English. More than 87% of active Basque speakers are bilingual in Spanish, whereas the knowledge of English is much, much smaller. The remaining ones are bilingual or fluent French speakers

This solution would be a bit risky for Polish. There is no enough working knowledge of one specific language to make a choice.

There is no such language for Polish. The closest (the most common) would still be English, although the working knowledge of English in Poland may vary amongst the users.

For Arabic as well, there is no need for another fallback language other than English.
