Add machine translation supported locales to each language

Open bittlingmayer opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

For each language, we list common locales (e.g. es-mx, es-ar...)

But for the purposes of Machine Translate, it would be more relevant to know which locales are supported by a machine translation system out of the box (e.g. es-419, es-es).

Note that most providers do not provide a locale for most languages and that some of the locales they provide are basically placebos.

What do you think about just adding the locales into the list of APIs on each language page? For instance, instead of a list like this:

  • DeepL
  • eTranslation
  • KantanMT
  • Globalese

It'd be a list like this (though these codes aren't accurate of these particular providers):

  • DeepL (sl)
  • eTranslation (sl-si)
  • KantanMT (slv)
  • Globalese (slv-Latn)

It would also address #306
