Re: Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Spellchecking language names showing up as ISO code

Hi Eike

Sorry for the late reply, yesterday turned a bit crazy.

Right so both technically are wrong, Ju|'hoan means person and -si is a 
plural ending, the language is called Juǀ'hoan(si) kokxui "language of 
the people" in full but when referring to in English, native speakers 
prefer just the label Juǀ'hoan and this is indeed what the Literacy 
Project has been using as their preferred English term for the language. 
I think it would be good sticking with that, seeing they will be the 
primary users.

Also, could you change the pipe character to ǀ (U+01C0)? They look 
similar on screen but it's the wrong character.

Other than that, many many thanks for your help!

Michael
