Hello Experts,

We have a huge website with around 140K pages and 40 languages.

We are planning for using App search(Premium plan) rather than using raw Elastic search for search in our web site but I see the supported language is only 13 but we have 40 Languages in our site,.

So does this mean the search will not work for any other language which is not in the list ?  
**eg PL**

Can you please support here asap, as this is imp to take a decision .

The Language selection just optimizes search for a particular language. I _believe_ you can still get reasonable results for other languages using the `Universal` option. You may have to experiment a bit.
