The other day, I was asked whether Windows supports all 22 of the Eighth Schedule languages in the Constitution of India.
You know, these 22 languages:
Assamese |
Bengali |
Bodo |
Dogri |
Gujarati |
Hindi |
Kannada |
Kashmiri |
Konkani |
Maithili |
Malayalam |
Manipuri |
Marathi |
Nepali |
Oriya |
Punjabi |
Sanskrit |
Santhali |
Sindhi |
Tamil |
Telugu |
Urdu |
The vast majority of them are supported in Windows, using their preferred scripts, and with a font, a locale, a keyboard, and a Language Interface Pack.
But there are some that are missing between one and five of those things.
In some cases for known reasons, and in other cases not
I think I'm going to have to dig into some of them a little deeper in future blogs.
Lke Bodo. And Dogri. And Kashmiri. And Mathili. And Manipuri.
And Santhali.
Each with their own story -- maybe a new Tag is needed?
Nah, I can use the "Linguistic" one I already have....
