This is beyond my knowledge but I'd love to know.

I am also directly contacted on a regular basis by small communities
with a given language. They see GCompris as a good way to get content
for their children in their language.

The best way to know is to make a test, add a .po file in GCompris and
in config.c to make it selectable and check if it works.
