So 2 years and 3 month later we are still at the same point ? Is it so hard to add several ISO639-3 mongolian codes for traditionnal mongolian script ?
The more imortant indiviual languages to add (to avoid conflict of macrolanguage as this is the main reason of the rejection) :
- ISO 639-3 mvf Chahar/Chakhar, not a macrolanguage, but an indivitual, reference China mongolian language https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/mvf that is probably the most used for our purpose and we can consider it _Mong by default
If possible, khk, as mn is a macrolanguage and not good to use (or we still use mn for both languages and are lote more things to fix in 2 years (as lot was added during 2 years) :
- ISO 639-3 khk, Halh/Khalkh not a macrolanguage but an individual too, reference mongolia mongolian language https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/khk cyrillic by default since about 50 years.
We could add the _Mong variantes mvf_Mong (that is the default for mvf, not usefull, khk_Mong (usefull as defaut is today Cyrl.
Some can be important (by magnitude of speakers) too and added one by one
- ISO 639-3 xal (khalmyk) individual : https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/xal
- ISO 639-3 bua (buryat, macrolanguage) has 3 individual languages. Russian one is probably the most populated :
- bxu – China Buriat
- bxm – Mongolia Buriat
- bxr – Russia Buriat
and
- ISO 639-3 cmg is used by historians isn't it ? Individual : https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/cmg
We will see later for _Mong/_Cyrl (as today _Hani/Hant/Hans are used for chinese)
