'Flemish' language entry is overriding 'Dutch' language #81

Open giorgio-zamparelli opened 6 years ago

giorgio-zamparelli commented 6 years ago
import countryData from 'country-data';
console.log(countryData.languages.nl.name); //outputs Flemish instead of Dutch

This is because the languages.csv file has the entries Dutch and Flemish with identical values

alpha2=nl
alpha3=nld
bibliographic=dut

I suggest removing the Flemish entry since Flemish it's considered not a language but rather an adjective/thesaurus to define Dutch dialects.

Dutch is the correct English word to define the Dutch language spoken in both The Netherlands and Belgium.

I can prepare a Pull Request with the Flemish entry removed from the languages.csv file.

Hi @Sonatrix! Has @evdb abandoned this repository permanently and country-data-list is the main fork under development?!
