Please change the name of the language (gom) from "Goan Konkani" to either "Romi-konkani" or else "Konkani (Romi)" ...doing so would remove the confusion of some people who may also get insulted by script differences when reading "Goan Konkani".
The two dominant scripts of Konkani in Goa are Devanagari and Roman or Romi as it is colloquially known. Devanagari orthography is considered the official one;
Romi is used by select weeklies/ magazines and Tiatr (drama) scripts. Source Alt source
While Devanagari is the official writing script taught in all Goan schools, Roman (romi) Konkani is also in use by many people in Goa.
After this change, the languages should look like:
gom: Konkani (Roman)
knn: Konkani (Devanagari)
