Hi all,

This is the proper way to request the localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/, so we will start working on adding it and let you know when we’re done.

Kind regards,

Hello @zaheer-abbas,

Can I please ask about the native name of the language – as you would write it in your own script? Also, as I see Sindhi uses Arabic script, is the language left to right or right to left?

Thanks,
Petya

  Hello @Petya Raykovska,
  
  In Sindhi script the language name is written as: سنڌي , it is written from right to left.
  
  I am not quite sure about the criteria for a new localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/ for Sindhi language(and I don’t know the Sindhi laguage either), but sd_SD is not correct as SD is the country code for Sudan. The locale `sd_PK ` is already there but the translation is not working at: https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/sd , when we select any project on the page, the sub-projects are displayed but not the main projects `Development`, `4.3.x` and `4.2.x`. The translation of sub projects don’t work either and show a `Not found` error. If these errors are fixed people can start working on Sindhi translation without asking for help.
  
  Maybe @zaheer-abbas should be appointed as the admin for sd_PK instead.
  
  Thanks,
  Asad

    Hello again 🙂
    
    We’re going to work on modifying the existing Sindhi localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico.

  The request for Sindhi localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/ has some mistakes. The Language Native Name should be “سنڌي”. Similarly, Site title should also be in the native script as “سنڌيءَ ۾ ورڊپريس” that translates to “WordPress in Sindhi”. Local should be “sd_PK”. There are several plural forms in Sindhi, as many as 7.

    Hello again @aursani,
    
    Thank you for adding a comment here. Can you please point me in the direction of a source that can confirm how many plural forms we need to add for the localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/? I link, a page?
    
    We will be using the ISO 639-3ISO 639-3 ISO 639-3 code is an international standard for language codes in the ISO 639 series. It defines three‐letter codes for identifying languages. code for the locale, which is “snd” as I mentioned in my comment above.

    Looking forward to hearing about the plural forms so we can add the locale and your team can start working.
