show language dependent common names #70

Closed jhpoelen closed 4 years ago

jhpoelen commented 4 years ago

Currently, only English common names are shown.

Suggest to show common names available for language version of GloBI. E.g., show "sea otter" for English and "Nutria marina" for Spanish.

Hi!

In Spanish we don´t say "Nutria marina", it does not wrong make the distinction but it is not a common thing. We only use the Spanish word "Nutria" for the fresh and marine otters. I leave it to you, both ways are correct.

But looks nice!

The common names come from external sources via . In this case, the Spanish common name came from the Encyclopedia of Life via GloBI's taxon graph https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1495265 . I hope making the common names (if available) visible will help to make them better.
