[unstats.un.org]</a><i><span style="background:white"> is a
fascinating resource. It does not appear difficult to identify
the national official languages of countries.</span></i><br>
</p>
<p>But it has problems. I looked at India which lists English and
Hindi as official languages. But they don't list the 12 official
regional languages like Urdu, Bengali, Punjabi -- many thousands
of people speak these languages and I don't see how we could
disenfranchise them. So I am going to go for "official and
commonly spoken languages" or "official and relevant languages." I
could also go for "any language" but that's a big door to open.<br>

consideration: as there is no clear “room consensus” on this

maintain “all languages”; (2) official languages and
official UN languages; (3) some intermediate solution
covering all languages commonly used in a given country to

<p class="MsoNormal">On our call yesterday there was some robust
discussion about draft recommendations 3, 4, and 6, which
suggest changing “in any language” to

the suggested edit</span>s<span style="color:black"> or

style="color:black;background:white">Some Work Track
members stated that the text “in any language” results in
a very large number of reserved strings and does not
provide a clear and objective list that can be used as
reference. From this perspective, the provision is not
predictable or transparent. One Work Track member also
noted that some languages are spoken by very few people,
therefore reserving representations in all languages may
not be appropriate. From another perspective, “in any
language” should remain in place unless there is a factual
basis for limiting the languages covered in this
provision. Many languages may be spoken by and relevant to
communities within a given country, and the list should
therefore not be limited. Work Track members suggested the
following possible options as alternatives to “in any
language”: </span></i><o:p></o:p></p>

the list should not be limited in this way. Official
UN languages are largely irrelevant in many
countries. Also from this perspective, the concept
of official languages only appears in certain

countries use languages that are not official.
People of the country also use languages that may
not be official, and these languages are important
