Please add these two languages Haitian Creole [ht] and Hmong Daw (Latin) [mww] to MAT? They are available in Cognitive Services https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/translator/language-support.

Meanwhile, can you tell us how to go about adding these languages manually?

Hi @pooranoayaw, currently there is no way to add those languages manually. We'll create the work item to get those added.

What is the alternative in our current project that we can follow to add these languages and get the translations from Azure?

Any ETA for this?

We will add them by July 22

Hi,

We will not be able to add these languages because it will result in a system-wide configuration change. More specifically, we would have to install those languages locally, and they would become available to all applications. This is due to a limitation of the System.Globalization namespace, which only allows new cultures to be added globally.

As a workaround, you can register this culture yourself by following this documentation.

As long as the culturename matches what Microsoft Translator has, it will appear in the list of languages when adding a new one. image
