[Quick Accent] Ability to select Irish (Gaeilge) and Scots (Gàidhlig) languages in "Choose Language" setting #21349

Closed pfk3 closed 1 year ago

pfk3 commented 1 year ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Please add "Gaeilge" and "Gàidhlig" to the list of available languages to select in Quick Accent's "Choose Language" setting popup.

"Gaeilge" is the native name of the Irish language. It only has five accents, the acute accent mark over the a,e,i,o and u: á é í ó ú

"Gàidhlig" is the native name of the Scots language. It also only has five accents, the grave accent mark over the a,e,i,o and u: à è ì ò ù

Scenario when this would be used?

Allow selection of these languages all the time. And use their native names (Gaeilge & Gàidhlig) in the list rather than English versions of the names of the languages.
