Language support

Hebrew has tons of language data support on Wikidata and could be added soon. The language has masculine and feminine genders, and appears to conjugate verbs using first, second, and third person along with singular and plural. The 3x2 conjugation display would thus be used.

Contribution

I'd be happy to work on this, and it may be focussed on in a future release :)

What's needed
  • A Hebrew directory added to Keyboards/LanguageKeyboards that includes a HebrewKeyboardViewController.swift file
  • Hebrew language keyboard values and logic added to HEInterfaceVariables.swift in the above directory
  • Hebrew language keyboard commands added to HECommandVariables.swift in the above directory
  • Fine tuning the WDQS queries found in Scribe-Data/Data/Hebrew
  • Writing formatting Python scripts and adding them to Scribe-Data/Data/Hebrew
  • Add Hebrew keyboard specific logic to KeyboardViewController.swift
  • Setting up alternate key functions if there are keys that have them that aren't already implemented
  • Adding all the formatted JSON data to a Data directory in the new directory and updating the data table in the readme
