This is kind of arbitrary, but here's my reasoning:
- Japanese goes first, because it's the original language.
- ja-kanji and roomaji follow because obviously we don't want to split
Japanese up.
- Korean and Chinese go next to keep Asian languages together.
- Then English, because it's the main language other than Japanese.
- Then French and German, because they translate their Pokémon names???
idk it feels intuitive to me. Plus I guess their IDs are next.
- Then Spanish and Italian, because they're the only official languages
left.
- Czech goes last because it's unofficial.
Add English as a language
Add columns:
identifier: same as iso639 except 'roomaji' for Roomaji
order: English first, then Japanese and Roomaji, others undefined
official: True for all the languages so far
Language codes are ISO 639-1; country codes are ISO 3166-1 alpha-2.
The country codes are important to keep for flags and stuff, I guess,
but reporting the language code as a short form for the language is
more correct.
Gonna see if I can do that, I guess. I added the language codes mostly
just because I was adding languages.
