What this issue about?
I have updated, sorry forgot to add description and lack of clarity.
@Prasanta-Hembram thanks for update. Linguist uses languages defined in ISO-639-1 standard, but not languages supported by google, since Linguist is not just wrapper around Google rather it is replace for google translator.
What a reasons to add Languages into Linguist? Do you have some specific problem with languages list?
All those languages are not available in Linguist GoogleTranslate module, example Santali is present in defined in ISO-639-1 standard, but not in Linguist extention. If I have to update/add langauge like Santali to GoogelTranslate module how to do it.
@Prasanta-Hembram as i see there are no this language in vesrion 1 (2-letter code): https://github.com/vitonsky/ISO-639_langs/blob/a3611a49b8f6bb369734a03b36fa161114cce4ac/ISO-639-1/data.json#L2725-L2731
If this is incorrect and you have links that confirm it, we have to fix it.
Otherwise this language will not supported even if any translator support it.
This design decision is motivated by factors below
Description:
The Linguist extension's Google Translate module likely relies on a static list of supported languages. As Google Translate's language support is expanding and needs to be updated manually regularly. Below are the sources where supported languages are updated regularly (even before google list them in their official website :-)).
