It causes all kinds of funny bugs when people set their language code to 'lu' and end up with things like date strings automatically translated to Luba-Katanga, a very melodic and completely different language spoken in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

- tuukkah 6y agoYeah, and as a language code, "se" refers to Northern Sami.
