What are the available languages for Google Spell? - spell-checking

https://www.google.com/tbproxy/spell?lang=???
I would like to know what language codes (like "en","de","fr"...) could be substituted for ???. I am looking for all of them.

According to Google, the following are the supported languages:
Danish
Dutch
English
Finnish
French
German
Italian
Polish
Portuguese (BR)
Russian
Spanish
Swedish
I'm sure you can extrapolate the two letter codes.
Don't be surprised if you try other languages and they work as well - it's typical for Google to beta test stuff like this live without letting anyone know. You could also install the toolbar and see if any other new languages show up.

ML-KIT Text recognision for non english language

I am trying to build a Japanese ocr using Google ML-Kit.
It is working for english but for Japanese I don't have the luck.
Can you please provide an example to do the same?
Thank you!
The current Text Recognition in ML Kit does not support non-English languages, but we are adding more languages support including Japan, which should be available in a couple of releases.

Google Detecting Japanese as English in voice recognition

I have created a voice controlled android application. I am giving option to change the locale to Japanese with English being the default one.
The Japanese TTS works perfectly fine. But when the voice recognition comes into picture, the Japanese words are recognized as English words and hence matched with the English words for possible match. Here, the mismatch occurs and hence my problem.
Is there any way google supports Japanese voice recognition.
Adding this if someone else finds this post helpful:
After months of RnD, I found another more accurate offline voice recognition engine i.e Julius. its hard to configure, yet the results are far better than google.

Xcode 5 & IOS 7 localization fallback language

I basically have functioning localization (whithout base), but I'm curious with regards to a specific case.
IOS stores the latest used languages on a device, but what if:
my application supports both Dutch and English and the app is also available in non-Dutch or English speaking countries. If a user has never used English or Dutch as a device language, what language will be on display in my app?
I naturally prefer to have the English language to be displayed.
Thanks in advance!
iOS will pick the one which is placed higher in the list of languages under:
Settings > General > International > Languages
For example consider the devices with language lists:
Device A
French
Italian
English
Dutch
Turkish
Device A (currently set to French) will display your app in English. Because English is placed higher than Dutch.
Device B
Japanese
German
French
Dutch
Turkish
English
Device B (currently set to Japanese) will display your app in Dutch. Because Dutch is placed higher than English.
If user never changed language settings, default order of these languages depends on the targeted market of the device.

Languages other than English in iTunesConnect

We have an app in the US app store, which we want our users to be able to find in Hebrew as well. so we want them to be able to search for the app name in English or Hebrew and still find it.
Turns out entering keywords in Hebrew doesn't work, ie searching for these keywords in Hebrew in the US store returns no results.
Does the US not support search in Hebrew, or do we need to add Hebrew as a language in the app's metadata in iTunes connect?
Searching in the appStore (in your case US) will of course only bring results in that language (English for now).
If you want it to be available in Hebrew then you will have to put it into the related appStore, while you don't have to translate you whole app into Hebrew except you want your users to have that translation as well.
Hope I could help ;)

Is there a way to localize more languages in English?

I explain.
My app is localized in Italian and English. Is there a way to localize all the other languages (except italian) in english?
If my app will be downloaded by a guy in China for example, i want him to display my app in English.
Any suggestions are welcome.
That will be done by default, as long as English is your default language, when the application doesn't find a properties file for any other language it will default to English.
In this case it will default to English, for every language but Italian.
