the following outputs "farsi" instead of "fa". is this the reason the translation of jalali month does not kick in?
We have these short and long names, and originally only had short ones, for efficiency reasons (like memory limitations in tex engines). At some point some showt nakes also started clashing, like \it : italian and italic. One can best use the long ones, while te shirt ones are used e.g. in lua data tables (easier). Teh fact that ther eis \fa is sort of 'good luck' because if we'd add a language today we don't define the short ones as command any longer (we keep the existing ones for compatibility). If you want to add a language (parent of child) you need to check that with Tomas Hala first because it has to into his label managagement project (with international students). When conversions are added, Wolfgang needs to agree with it. When okay it then can also be added to the interface (setups) specification.
