It always strikes me how the #ISO standard #language designations belie some lack of understanding of cultures that weren't brought in for them.
Like, the abbreviation for #한국 / #한글 (#Hangug / #Hangul) is "KO", for "#Korean", when that's not what the language is called by native speakers, nor is it really even a word in that language. I think the best one would have been "HG", but these people never asked someone who even knew a bit of the language.
Meanwhile, they correctly labeled #Deutsch as "DE", and not "#German", which is good because "German" is not a word in Deutsch and many people from Deutschland don't know English and might legitimately not know what it refers to.
It just feels like we're dealing with inconsistencies caused by legacy #eurocentrism when we use these old designations for modern technology: I'm coding a website in #HTML that I want to have options for EN, DE, ES, and KO, and that's super weird when you've learned enough of all four to know the reality.

@draco Export/Import와 유사한 개념을 도입해서 편집용, 배포용 저장 프로세스 자체를 분리했으면 합니다. 국제적 합의 및 표준과는 거리가 아주 먼 HWP 포맷 자체에 저도 환멸을 느낀 적이 여럿 있습니다.
다만, 그 포맷을 사용하는 [한글]이라는 편집 소프트웨어가 한국어 문서를 편집하는데 경쟁사들 대비해서 용이하다는 것에는 부정하기가 쉽지 않은 터라... 포맷만 양보하면 될 것 같은데 적극적으로 하지 않는 이유가 무엇이 두려운건지 궁금하기도 합니다.
그렇게 버티다보면 경쟁사들도 한국어 지원을 지금보다 더 원활하게 하게되는 순간, 결국 ODT 기반 소프트웨어에 아예 밀려버릴 수도 있을텐데 말이죠 #한글 #HWP
One of the reasons I keep bouncing off #Doulingo for #Japanese and #Korean is that it quite frequently is just plain wrong in very obvious and easily fixable ways and its a big effort to double check everything because if I can see obvious wrong what about all the stuff I _cant_ see!? Very demotivating! #rant #日本語 #한글

Um. Yes, please. This will be a fun addition to my other #한글 studies. I've already watched two of those shows!

It's my birthday and the two gifts I got are pertinent to my hobbies, not work, and I couldn't be more excited. One is an English/한글 wireless keyboard, which will make typing Korean words SO much easier. The other is a replacement for my old Holga camera - which *I guess* could be related to my current WIP in that my MC is a photographer who also likes shooting in medium format, but I got it for me, not for them!
