Thread:Talk:Universal Language Selector/m x n language names/reply (2)

As you commented with the Basque-Navajo example, some combinations will serve mainly to generate "false positives" (languages their name in another language matches the search term but the user is not looking for them), and this would make the filtering less effective.

We want to cover as much combinations as they are useful, but the meaningful combinations may be hard to anticipate completely. The proposed solution in the design is a basic starting point that will allow us to detect real needs (by user feedback or analyzing searches where users do not find their language) and add support for them. As you suggested with the Basque-Spanish example, neighbourhood is a good criteria for language combinations to be considered.
