Nice work Dizzy, thanks :thumbsup

Feel free to make additions and modifications. I'm still plowing through all the $Token variables, for example. 

Is "Cyrillic" really a language? I get the feeling EA may decide to change that one (to be something a bit more specific).

In Soviet Russia, you do not plow through variables, variables plow through YOU! Cyrillic is Russian.

Cyrillic is Russian.

Nonsense!  It's what my Uncle Cyril used to speak.

Can you just ask Dizzy whether 31 is right... Latvian might make more sense than "Latin"...

If that's the case, then why is Russian already in the list?

OllyDbg says otherwise, and Olly has always been right so far. 

Maybe "Cyrillic" is actually Latviešu? Now, that is more likely.

EDIT: Just double-checked, and it is Latin for certain. Unless they misspelled "latin/Latin/la" all three times.

[J. M. Pescado]

Could be how Chinese is on the list 2 or 3 times.

Well, the next PJSE is going out with the langs as listed by Dizzy here.   If we get any complaints, we'll refer the complainants to this thread!
