Scottish-English voice Fiona by shell error separator

[jmburnod]

Hi All,
I noticed an error about Scottish-English voice Fiona when i get it by shell.
Fiona is the only voice which use "-" as separator. All others use "_".

Diego es_AR # Hola, me llamo Diego y soy una voz española.
Ellen nl_BE # Hallo, mijn naam is Ellen. Ik ben een Belgische stem.
Fiona en-scotland # Hello, my name is Fiona. I am a Scottish-English voice.
Fred en_US # I sure like being inside this fancy computer

Best regards
Jean-Marc

This is NOT an error: Fiona is Scots, and Scots never make mistakes:
ALL the others are in error!

Albanach.

On a serious note, why should a "-" be an error?

[[-hh]]

No error, "-" is NOT a separator.
"en-scotland" is an own language, like "en".
May be en-scotland_UK is an upcoming language ...

May be en-scotland_UK is an upcoming language ...

This maybe because of the politically motivated position of Scots (I don't mean Scottish Gaelic), as some
linguists regard Scots (a.k.a. as Lallans) as a collection of dialects of English, while others regard Scots as a collection
of dialects of a language that is not English (Scots).

If you ask anyone "Is Scots a language or a dialect of English?", with the exception of a
few dispassionate linguists you will get all sorts of politically and emotionally motivated answers,
ALL of which are part of the truth.

The 'truth' (as far as 'truth' gets when it comes to languages) being mainly "it depends".
