Field "LanguageID" in .lng files ?

Post by Golfy »

Hi,

I would to correct this in french.lng if it's not right : actually LanguageID=0c

Microsoft says : http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/defau ... s_61df.asp

Code: Select all

0x0c0c				Canada (CA)	0x03	SUBLANG_FRENCH_CANADIAN
0x040c				France (FR)	0x01	SUBLANG_FRENCH
0x140c				Luxembourg (LU)	0x05	SUBLANG_FRENCH_LUXEMBOURG
So, LanguageID=040c ???

Are there many differences in between these 3 variations? If not, then we could just keep the original ID.

I hope so no... but as I'm french from France, I prefer to use France ID code.
Like this, canadians wouldn't says "the translator is bad" :lol:

(for example, in France email could still "email" rather Quebec and French canadians would prefer "courriel")
As I wouldn't offend or hurt anyone, I thinks it's better to put the right code and if a canadian's guy want to arrange translation for Canada, he could do that with the right code for him.


Thanks for your answer

Okay, got you. Some changes might be needed with EPIM in order for the new system to work. Meanwhile, please leave the language ID as it currently is.
