For some reason when switching the default language to Greek, some words written only in capital Greek letters are fine (like the word "ΧΡΗΣΤΗΣ" meaning "USER" - underlined with red in the screenshot below) while others keep the accent like the "ΑΠΕΝΕΡΓΟΠΟΊΗΣΗ ΕΙΔΟΠΟΙΉΣΕΩΝ" meaning "TURN OFF NOTIFICATIONS".
The correct is "ΑΠΕΝΕΡΓΟΠΟΙΗΣΗ ΕΙΔΟΠΟΙΗΣΕΩΝ" because in Greek when write with caps only you should use no accent.
This is a common "bug" with Greek words and CSS (text-transform: uppercase;) and can be easily fix with php using something like the following function:
