**Differences from LDML Version 44.1**

* Part 1: [Core](tr35.md#Contents)
* In [Parent Locales](tr35.md#Parent_Locales), add an additional attribute and value `localeRules="nonlikelyScript"` to allow for algorithmic handling of inheritance so that mixtures of scripts are avoided.
For example, preventing `ru_Latn` from falling back to `ru` (which is Cyrillic script).
Previously, there was a small list of such locales, but they were far from covering all cases.
That list was retained for migration.
