Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/heysem-useinsider/Stringz/issues/22

Hi, I have Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional (Taiwan), Chinese Traditional (Hong Kong) in my project,
but I only see Chinese Simplified and Chinese Traditional (Taiwan) in Stringz editor.
Chinese Traditional (Hong Kong) (zh-Hant-HK) doesn't show up
Don't know it's a problem or just my mistake?

I'm not sure there is a (zh-Hant-HK) language.
I think Xcode only supports the following languages: (zh-hans), (zh-hant), (zh-hk).
Please tell me wheather (zh-Hant-HK) is a real supported language. I'll add it to Stringz if so.

Hi, it's RFC4646

language-script-region-variant-extension-privateuse

and XCode support that.

zh-Hant-hk means Zh-Hant in Hong Kong, but Hong Kong also use Hans sometimes, so another setting is Zh-Hans-hk.

Hans means Chinese Simplified. (usually use in China, sometimes in Hong Kong)

Hant means Chinese Traditional. (usually use in Taiwan and Hong Kong)

Thanks!

Only use a script designator in a locale ID when there is ambiguity. For example, because Traditional Chinese is the default language in Hong Kong, use zh_HK, where zh is the code for Traditional Chinese and HK is the code for the Hong Kong region. For Simplified Chinese used in Hong Kong, use zh-Hans_HK as the locale ID, where zh-Hans is the code for the Simplified Chinese script.
