Thread:Talk:Directionality support/Language or script?/reply

Let me illustrate my point.
 * An audio file in Hebrew is not RTL. I discussed this yesterday by telephone with a friend, in Arabic, and he too was not talking with a specific directionality.
 * The current example File:LTR content with RTL interface (after).png does have a mirrored interface (mirrored from the en.wikipedia), but that "interface" is not scriptwise RTL by itself. It is perfectly imaginable (if not possible) to have that mirrored layout, and use English LTR content everywhere.
 * (By the way, should the word "interface" not be "style", as opposed to "content"? CSS and all.)
 * Is there a decisive list available that says: "language Aa(a) is written in script Xxxx"? The list could be decisive for all wikiworld. This way thousands of languages would fold into some hundreds of scripts.
 * My suggestion is: when talking directionality, don't talk languages, but talk scripts. Only scholars & researchers are allowed to mix up those -- in a controlled environment. Outside it is dangerously confusing! -DePiep 10:23, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
