Separation of Eastern and Western Armenians

Closed this issue · 2 comments

As you know, we have codes for the representation of name of Armenian language:

  • ISO 639-2 (bibliographic):    arm
  • ISO 639-2 (terminology):     hye
  • ISO 639-1:                            hy
  • RFC 4646:                            hy-AM

But unfortunately seems we don't have any ISO standard identification code to separate Western Armenian from Eastern Armenian.

Currently you have generated db of eastern Armenian. Do you guys think it's relevant to separate (or add) western version of Armenian language?

Well, the content we use comes from hy.wikipedia, which is not only Eastern Armenian (e.g. Հայաստան)

ideally we could identify whether it's Eastern or Western and have even different versions of Armenian->Latin mapping, but that's beyond the scope of this work for now.

@Hrant-Khachatrian understood, thanks!
