In my case the M365 language setting has no effect on the Planner email notification language. Display language has No Preference Set [English (United States)] as the value, which I am unable to change because this is managed by the organisation.

As far as I can tell the Planner's email notification language is derived from Settings -> Language & Region -> Regional format instead of Display language or Preferred language.
This is utterly absurd, as I want to get the local regional format and emails in English.
