Re: [sword-devel] ISO language codes

3-character

one)?


I not have much knowledge of this, but after a quick look at the 
source code, I saw the ISO language code is used by the 
transliteration filter.


ISO language code is  also used by the Xapian search engine, I 
suppose we can't search Chinese or Hebrew or English texts the 
same way. See: https://xapian.org/docs/stemming.html


And if I recall correctly, ISO language code is used in Lucene 
searches by JSword.



(In fact I see IANA now have a new registry of codes which 
supersedes the
2-char and 3-char lists, but it looks as though this merely 
mandates the use
of the old 2-character codes where available, and 3-character 
otherwise.)


Is there a benefit over the SIL database?

SIL International is the registration authority for ISO-639-3.

"SIL International (formerly known as the Summer Institute of 
Linguistics) is a Christian non-profit organization, whose main 
purpose is to study, develop and document languages, especially 
those that are lesser-known, in order to expand linguistic 
knowledge, promote literacy, translate the Christian Bible into 
local languages, and aid minority language development."

Hi Jamie,

One use is to support a language tree structure in the IntallMgr UI for some 
front-end apps.

Xiphos & PocketSword are examples of such.

And Bible - on the other hand - doesn’t present such a tree structure.

Regards,

David

Hi David,

The various language tables are lists.  They come together by established
rules: BCP-47.

If you read BCP 47 it makes sense.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IETF_language_tag (link to the spec in the
footnotes.)

[sword-devel] ISO language codes

2021-01-12 Thread Jamie
The Sword config file contains an ISO language code.  Is anyone able to tell
me what this gets used for (and more specifically, whether there is any
requirement as to whether this should be a 2-character code or a 3-character
one)?

(In fact I see IANA now have a new registry of codes which supersedes the
2-char and 3-char lists, but it looks as though this merely mandates the use
of the old 2-character codes where available, and 3-character otherwise.)

Thanks,
