This isn't really a question; it's a request to add a feature. This process was indicated in the accepted answer to the question: https://askubuntu.com/questions/28440/where-can-i-send-feature-requests – CentaurusA Oct 17 '18 at 17:30

@CentaurusA: I'd say that it's not an ordinary feature request either. Please see my answer. – Gunnar Hjalmarsson Oct 17 '18 at 20:04

The reason is that too few strings are currently translated into Armenian.
Translation of Linux, including Ubuntu, is mostly done by volunteers. You may want to take contact with the Ubuntu Armenian Translators team and maybe get involved yourself.
It's not possible to just request a new language to be added. Establishing a new language and make it sufficiently translated is a big undertaking.

@HaykoKarapetyan: I suppose you mean 14.04. No sorry, that's not how it works. Maybe it would help if you edited your question and explained what exactly it is you want to achieve. – Gunnar Hjalmarsson Oct 18 '18 at 11:40

@HaykoKarapetyan: My answer above includes a link to the Armenian translators team, and I'd advise you to get in touch with them. Hopefully they are able to guide you further. Otherwise, and if you want to help with Armenian translations of Ubuntu, post a message to the ubuntu-translators mailing list (subscribe first). – Gunnar Hjalmarsson Oct 18 '18 at 17:52
