ngx-translate provide fallback language

Hi I can see there is a way in ngx-translate to provide default language as shown below

this.translate.setDefaultLang('en');

But I want to set different fallback language like:

en-US, en-IN & en-UK should fall back to en.json if the file doesn't exist. fr-CA should fallback to fr.json and then whatever I specified as default if it doesn't find fr.json

I was unable to find a way ngx-translate provide to solve this until we handle it logically.

If someone knows a way ngx-translate provide, please let me know.

translate.setDefault(..) is setting the fallback language, so you are already using the fallback

To set the used language, if available, set it with translate.use(..).

To use a fallback with custom name, like "en-US", try to create the appropriate en-US.json translation file with translations. But this could produce compatibility problems since documentation only states to use "en" format
