My third question is whether there is any way to make the "ay" locale default to a language other than English if there is no available translation. Very few Aymara speakers know English, but almost all of them know Spanish, so I would like Spanish to be displayed if an Aymara translation isn't available. Is this possible?

Hello, I am just going to answer the above question:

You can choose as many languages as you please in the Cinnamon user environment and you could setup your defaults in your newly made distro.

Take a look here: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=156631

For starters you need to get to the Language settings and drag and drop your language from the grey area to the black area. So you will have: Aymara and Spanish with black, everything else with grey.

Hope this helps,

Daniel
