Talk:List of language names

I think that it would be better not to have the ad hoc pronunciations now listed. Perhaps IPA would be better.--Jaurisova6 11:19, 6 December 2005 (UTC) Swedish is called "sveska" in swedish, not "svensk"!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.89.227.146 (talk) 16:05, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

China
"Zhong Guo" does not mean The Middle Kingdom. This has been a mistranslation for centuries. Zhong Guo means "The Central National State" or "The National State at the Center (of the world)". 86.136.57.254 (talk) 20:14, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The translation of "Zhong Guo" is complex and nuanced...--达伟 (talk) 12:55, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

Merge
Given the last two links on the page ("Back to the Lists Of Languages" and "See the list of languages around the world in Abaza"), it would appear this was lifted off the web without much care. I'd think we'd want verification for anything we merge. — kwami (talk) 16:11, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Tabular form
This would be better (clearer and more concise) as a table. Ehrenkater (talk) 16:39, 4 December 2017 (UTC)

It would be to large to fit on any electronic screen. Macy Sinrich (talk) 15:59, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

Support for tabular form. CrasherX (talk) 11:52, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
