You can basically guess the language based on the script in which it's displayed. It would be better if the language choices were displayed as a translation to your native language. So instead of 日本語 it should just say "Japanese"

- dotancohen 3y agoI think that's the idea. Not much different than differentiating e.g. German and Italian as they use mostly the same alphabet. For what it's worth, I can identify Farsi from Arabic as I can read Arabic and Farsi has some additional letters. I suppose that German and Italian would be a similar situation for most HN readers.
