Metadata primary language #43

Closed hirschlisa closed 1 month ago

hirschlisa commented 1 month ago

List of primary languages is no free text field, but contains a drop down list with English, German, French only. Can that be adapted to better reflect the diversity of languages amongst CESSDA SPs?

@hirschlisa Can you provide a list of languages that you expect to be present in the dorpdown?

By the Training working group's request, the list was restricted to keep it as small as possible. It is easy to add more languages following a request from CESSDA.

If there is no technical reason for keeping the list short I would greatly appreciate adding all languages from CESSDA SPs to the list. Concretely, the ones that are missing right now are Hungarian, Macedonian, Slovene/Slovenian.

The full list of languages (to be added to German, English French right now) following the list of SPs here (https://www.cessda.eu/About/Consortium-and-Partners/List-of-Service-Providers): Dutch, BCMS, Czech, Finnish, Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Macedonian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Slovak, Swedish

I played around a bit and asked ChatGPT for a list and it produced the following:

Here is the updated list with the additional countries:

  1. Austria - German
  2. Belgium - Dutch (Dutch, French, and German are official, but Dutch is the most widely spoken)
  3. Croatia - Croatian
  4. Czech Republic - Czech
  5. Finland - Finnish (Finnish and Swedish are official, but Finnish is the most widely spoken)
  6. France - French
  7. Germany - German
  8. Greece - Greek
  9. Hungary - Hungarian
  10. Iceland - Icelandic
  11. Ireland - Irish (English and Irish are official, but Irish is the national and first official language)
  12. Italy - Italian
  13. Netherlands - Dutch
  14. North Macedonia - Macedonian
  15. Norway - Norwegian
  16. Slovenia - Slovene
  17. Sweden - Swedish
  18. Switzerland - German (German, French, Italian, and Romansh are official, but German is the most widely spoken)
  19. United Kingdom (UK) - English
  20. Portugal - Portuguese
  21. Serbia - Serbian
  22. Slovakia - Slovak

So, the clean list without duplicates would be: "German, Dutch, Croatian, Czech, Finnish, French, Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Irish, Italian, Macedonian, Norwegian, Slovene, Swedish, English, Portuguese, Serbian, Slovak"

I've updated the list and arranged them alphabetically. The additional languages are now available for Training resources.
