Hi Xi, Thanks for your response. I think this is not about adding a NEW LANGUAGE in that sense, cause the language will stay teh same - Serbian. Its merely a scripting issue, or presenting a language in a different script, one of the two standard scripts of the Serbian language. Just like you have "Chinese (Simplified)" and "Chinese (Traditional)"... we would have "Serbian (Latin)" and "Serbian (Cyrillic)" I think the solution would be to just simply add an option to view Serbian in Latin Script. The dictionaly will be absolutely the same.
