Gregorian.info day_of_week not providing localisation for most languages in simulator

I am trying to collect the minimum characters needed to represent all the different days of the week in all the languages that Garmin supports. To do so, I wrote a short unit test that enumerated all the necessary characters, and have been running them on the 3.0.10 simulator (both a Delta 2 Charlie and a Fenix 5 Plus).

However, when running this unit test, whilst I get different output for the first two languages (Bahasa Indonesian (ind) and Bahasa Malaysian (zsm)), all the other languages I have tried so far are just producing the results for English (eng). I know from a bug report that in the Danish (dan) language, there should be a letter Ø in their name for Sunday - but no such letter appears in my list, and checking the output for day_of_week, I'm seeing only English week day names.

I've also found these 2 links useful, but no idea if they match the strings used by Garmin, or if the 3 letter abbreviations are always the first 3 letters ...

And I also noticed that some of the recent languages added to the app manifest file could require some extra characters (namely Latvian, Romanian, Ukrainian and Bulgarian). But I don't know whether those languages can actually be installed on a device, or whether they are only ever used in mobile apps & settings.

Yes I have also noted there are newer languages.

I need to revive this project and get the stuff updated or provide links to where you guys can find the source and do it yourselves.

I'm pretty sure those have been added to some devices (maybe just some of the newer ones), and I think there's something in the SDK change log history about that.

Also, I don't see the APAC languages in the list you posted, so there's those too..
