Etiquette notice: Please don't use all caps; it's perceived as shouting.

What you describe is, unfortunately, how Joomla works.

When you install the software it only installs English (en-GB) mail templates – the fact that there's no Norwegian translation (in either Norwegian dialect) shipped with the software should've given that away.

When you tell Joomla's Mail Templates to create a Norwegian template, it simply copies the English over. It expects you to translate them. It also doesn't tell you which, quite frankly, sucks from a usability point of view. My guess is that this lack of communication on Joomla's part is what got you. Don't worry, you're not the only one!

Since it's a lot of mail templates to translate, I would recommend using AI for that. It does a fairly solid job, with very few manual changes required. Which is to say, use it to translate the mail templates, then do some manual proof-reading to catch the odd phrasing or uncommon term here and there.

No worries! I only mentioned it because it's a public ticket. I don't care about all caps at all :)
