// IsCJKLanguage
// -------------
//
// This function returns true if the language is either Chinese
// (simplified or traditional), Japanese, or Korean.

// -----------------
//
// This function returns true if the language is either Chinese

//
// This function returns true if the language is any of the Norwegian

// --------------------
//
// This function returns true if the language is any of the Portuguese
// languages (regular, Portugal or Brazil)

// IsSameLanguage
// --------------
//
// WARNING: This function provides only a simple test on the values of
// the two Language arguments. It returns false if either language is
// invalid. It returns true if the language arguments are equal, or
// if they are both Chinese languages, both Norwegian languages, or
// both Portuguese languages, as defined by IsChineseLanguage,
// IsNorwegianLanguage, and IsPortugueseLanguage. Otherwise it returns
// false.

// IsRightToLeftLanguage
// ---------------------
//
// This function returns true if the language is only written right-to-left
// (E.g., Hebrew, Arabic, Persian etc.)
//
// IMPORTANT NOTE: Technically we're talking about scripts, not languages.
// There are languages that can be written in more than one script.
// Examples:
//   - Kurdish and Azeri ('AZERBAIJANI') can be written left-to-right in
//     Latin or Cyrillic script, and right-to-left in Arabic script.
//   - Sindhi and Punjabi are written in different scripts, depending on
//     region and dialect.
//   - Turkmen used an Arabic script historically, but not any more.
//   - Pashto and Uyghur can use Arabic script, but use a Roman script
//     on the Internet.
//   - Kashmiri and Urdu are written either with Arabic or Devanagari script.
//
// This function only returns true for languages that are always, unequivocally
// written in right-to-left script.
//
// TODO(benjy): If we want to do anything special with multi-script languages
// we should create new 'languages' for each language+script, as we do for
// traditional vs. simplified Chinese. However most such languages are rare in
// use and even rarer on the web, so this is unlikely to be something we'll
// be concerned with for a while.

// IsMaybeRightToLeftLanguage
// --------------------------
//
// This function returns true if the language may appear on the web in a
// right-to-left script (E.g., Hebrew, Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Kurdish, etc.)
//
// NOTE: See important notes under IsRightToLeftLanguage(...).
//
// This function returns true for languages that *may* appear on the web in a
// right-to-left script, even if they may also appear in a left-to-right
// script.
//
// This function should typically be used in cases where doing some work on
// left-to-right text would be OK (usually a no-op), and this function is used
// just to cut down on unnecessary work on regular, LTR text.
bool IsMaybeRightToLeftLanguage(Language lang);

// IsScriptRequiringLongerSnippets
// --------------------
//
// This function returns true if the script chracteristics require longer
// snippet length (Devanagari, Bengali, Gurmukhi,
// Gujarati, Oriya, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam).
// COMMENTED OUT TO REDUCE DEPENDENCIES ON GOOGLE3 CODE
