anthony0030 0 Posted July 26, 2025 Posted July 26, 2025 My wife and I watch movies, and she needs Subtitles in Greek. The name in the subtitles comes up as "Greek, Modern (1453-)", it hurts my OCD. Another lib has this problem. Quote The name of the modern Greek language should simply be Greek instead of Greek, Modern (1453-). All other languages have modern and ancient versions of them. We do not constantly specify Modern English, Modern German when we refer to English and German. The same should be true for Greek. https://github.com/OpenBookPrices/country-data/issues/82
Luke 42077 Posted July 26, 2025 Posted July 26, 2025 Hi, where exactly do you see this? Can you please show a screenshot example? Thanks.
anthony0030 0 Posted July 27, 2025 Author Posted July 27, 2025 Hi Luke, Thank you for such a quick response! In the subtitle selection. (See screenshot attached). I can confirm I have seen this on iOS and webos (LG). I am a programmer. I had the same problem, a library that scraped Wikipedia must have been used for the language names.
