Note that this does not limit the UI localization, which should use mere 'pdt' without any country designator. Eike -- LibreOffice Calc developer. Number formatter stricken i18n transpositionizer.

Re: [libreoffice-l10n] New language request: PDT "Plautdietsch"
While adding locales, we might as well include pdt-MX, pdt-BZ and pdt-BO where many speakers have dificulty communicating in either Spanish or English. Besides pdt-CA, pdt-US and pdt-PY also have significant populations of Plautdietsch speakers. Then we might as well also add pdt-DE. Since they are pushing for a variant spelling. Similar to en-US/UK or de-DE/AT or fr-FR/CA. Mario L.

My perception is that the language is used as much, if not more in the US, and Mexico, as it is in Canada. ### At some point the UI is going to have to be redesigned, because a theoretical 250 countries times 3,000 languages times 212 writing systems is going to be too chaotic for anybody to the language/writing system/country that they are looking for.

Hi Mario, Welcome to our team! I'm adding Eike in copy of this mail, he will be able to help you to have the language included. @Eike, do you want Mario to open an issue on BZ with the details?

[libreoffice-l10n] New language request: PDT "Plautdietsch"
I would like to request the inclusion of a new language in LibreOffice. ISO 639-3: pdt - Plautdietsch. A variant of Low German, though very much distinct and different from the ISO 639-3 "nds". The language codes as specified by BCP 47 would be: -> pdt-019 (the main user community) -> pdt-150 (a secondary community with alternative orthography) There is no MS-LangID for PDT. PDT uses the Latin script, just like English, German and Spanish. The collating order would follow German (de) for now. Though that is still in flux, and might change slightly in the future. The quotation marks follow English (en-US). The currency formats follow the corresponding country codes. Currently I am the technical lead for the development of a spell checker and hyphenator for Plautdietsch, the possible localization and the development of translating dictionaries to and from English, Spanish and German. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Mario L.
