Description jean@maillard.it 2020-02-10 08:00:10 UTC

Hi,

I would like to request the addition of Ligurian to the supported languages please: https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/lij.

We have a Hunspell dictionary we are happy to open source and contribute, too.

Thanks!

Note that meanwhile, until the language is added to the language box, you can use the language tag lij-IT in the character attribution's language setting.

Adding a language to the language list box makes it available for
character attribution and spell-checking. Availability of spell checker,
hyphenation and thesaurus of course depends on the installed
dictionaries. To be able to fully support it as a locale, including
number formats and calendar data, and having it selectable as default
document language we would need a locale data file.
