as we all know ab_CD means language code of 'ab' and country code of 'CD'

but as a Sinhala user we use 'si' or 'si_LK'.

LK is country code for Sri Lanka.

But I was wondering why you use 'si_SI'

http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/po/si_SI

This page exists because, at some point in the past, some packages were incorrecly using si_SI.po files.

Such errors in software are quite common unfortunately as many software developers are quite ignorant about the correct use of ISO codes.

Please revert this ASAP.
'si' is the language code for Sinhala.

There is nothing to revert.

Thanks for the update. :)
