EDIT: Now updated with ISO 639-1 codes!

Do you speak Croatian (hr), Breton (br), or Scottish Gaelic( gd)?

All three of those languages have slipped under 70% translation for Thunderbird for Android! Normally this would mean removing them from the app. But we're hoping we can rally some translators to help complete these languages - or at least get them over 70% translated!

While I can speak a little of Breton, Irish Garlic and Croatian and others, I'm not fluent enough to help. Wish I could but but perhaps someone else will.

@LanguageMan1 As a bit of a language magpie ourselves, we understand that feeling, but thanks for the kind message!

Gaelic is a whole family of languages including Irish, Scots, Welsh, Cornish, Manx, Breton and a number of others. You'd need to be more specific.

@ratcatcher We updated the post with the codes for all the languages - it's Scottish Gaelic (gd)! Sorry for not being more specific in the original post.

@baz Thanks for the hashtag

@thunderbird completely snowed under right now, but we'd like to keep the gd locale going. Thanks for not removing it yet!

@gunchleoc @baz Thank you for offering to step up! The response to this post has been so encouraging, and we hope that gd not only gets over 70%, but all the way to 100%!

Completing the Gàidhlig translation of Thunderbird email client on Android would be a great community project. A small amount of Scottish government funding/support would help too.

@chillypenguin Oh, this is a really good idea - both for this language and others that are in danger of falling under 70% translated. We'll definitely pass it on to our new community manager once we hire them, and maybe we could do some outreach!
