A list of languages of countries in discussions with OLPC, with links to priorities and status of OLPC-related language work in each, where available. All of these languages can be entered, viewed, and printed in most distributions of Linux. Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba (the most important three of the eight official languages of Nigeria other than English) lack further support, including native keyboard layouts and locales. Mongolian is currently supported only in Cyrillic, not in its traditional alphabet.

There are local OLPC organizations in several other countries.
