Language definition: Brahui (brh) incorrectly defaults to LTR, should be RTL #2326
Description
Describe the issue
Brahui (brh) language definition on Hosted Weblate has text
direction set to "Left to right":
https://hosted.weblate.org/languages/brh/#information
Brahui is written in Arabic (Nastaliq) script and must be
"Right to left".
How to reproduce
- Go to https://hosted.weblate.org/languages/brh/
- See "Text direction: Left to right" in the summary
Expected behavior
Text direction should be "Right to left".
Why this is wrong
As per the Weblate docs on language definitions, auto-created
languages default to LTR, and the docs recommend reporting
this to the issue tracker so the proper definition can be
added to upcoming releases.
Brahui's RTL direction is confirmed by:
- CLDR exemplars/main/brh.xml:
right-to-left
The LibreOffice Weblate instance correctly sets Brahui as
RTL, confirming this is a Hosted Weblate definition issue.
