I need japanese, any news on if that will happen?

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 32 points 1 year ago (2 children)

No news on that though AFAIK that's the most requested one. As other comment pointed out currently these languages are WIP:

  • Russian
  • Persian (Farsi)
  • Icelandic
  • Norwegian Nynorsk
  • Norwegian Bokmål
  • Ukrainian
  • Dutch

Personally I'd like to see more asian languages as that part of the web is lacking English but those languages are much harder to implement and all of this contribution here is mostly by European universities and organizations.

Nynorsk supporters just never quit do they. Half the country wants it gone and less than 10 percent of the country uses it, still it's on the list while Swedish and Danish aren't, lmao.

We already have one language.

Yes but what about a second language?
