 | | Notices describing additions/deletions of code values will be issued for all changes to the language codes made in the interim period between issuance of revised versions of this document. | | | This code is also used for works having textual content consisting of arbitrary syllables, humming or other human-produced sounds for which a language cannot be specified. | | | The appropriate format document should be consulted for specific instructions on the use of language codes in these fields and subfields. |

| | Chinese language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Furthermore, the implication that describing Chinese as multiple languages is more correct often carries with it the implication that the notion of a single Chinese language and by implication a single Chinese state or nationality is backward, oppressive, artificial, and out of touch with reality. | | | However, the linkages between ethnicity, politics, and language can be complex. | | | Interestingly, the complexity of the situation can be demonstrated by the fact among those who consider Chinese to be separate languages, there is no consensus on how many languages there are, and where the dividing lines between the languages should be. |

| | [No title] |
| | In some contexts, it is possible to have information available in more than one language, or it might be possible to provide tools (such as dictionaries) to assist in the understanding of a language. | | | In most cases, reference to an authoritative grammar or dictionary of the language will be useful; in cases where no such work exists, other well known works describing that language or in that language may be appropriate. | | | Abstract This document describes a language tag for use in cases where it is desired to indicate the language used in an information object, how to register values for use in this language tag, and a construct for matching such language tags. |

| | ipedia.com: English language Article |
| | English is a much less inflected language than most Indo-European languages, placing much grammatical information in auxiliary words and word order. | | | Named examples of these ad-hoc constructions, distinct from pidgin and creole languages, include Engrish, Franglais and Spanglish. | | | Modern English, the language described by this article, began its rise around the time of William Shakespeare and its grammar has been essentially the same since that time, with the most important changes being in the large increase of vocabulary. |

| | Language information and text direction |
| | In the context of HTML, a language code should be interpreted by user agents as a hierarchy of tokens rather than a single token. | | | Achieving the correct presentation requires no additional markup since the Hebrew fragments are reversed correctly by user agents applying the bidirectional algorithm. | | | attribute's value is a language code that identifies a natural language spoken, written, or otherwise used for the communication of information among people. |

| | Extensible Markup Language, abbreviated XML, describes a class of data objects called XML documents and partially describes the behavior of computer programs which process them. | | | In document processing, it is often useful to identify the natural or formal language in which the content is written. | | | On the other hand, "significant" white space that should be preserved in the delivered version is common, for example in poetry and source code. |

| | Codes for the representation of names of languages (Library of Congress) |
| | The languages listed in ISO 639-1 are a subset of the languages listed in ISO 639-2; every language code in the two-letter code set has a corresponding language code in the alpha-3 list, but not necessarily vice versa. | | | Both code lists are to be considered as open lists. | | | ISO 639 provides two sets of language codes, one as a two-letter code set (639-1) and another as a three-letter code set (this part of ISO 639) for the representation of names of languages. |

| | Encyclopedia: Language codes |
| | Language codes are used by computers to record the language a document or piece of text is written in, so that programs can choose a dictionary for spell-checking, a font for display, whether the text should be set left-to-right or right-to-left, and algorithms for collating, sorting, searching, hyphenation, and many other automatable tasks. | | | A language code is a system that assigns short codes to languages. | | | The best known language codes are ISO 639 and the SIL code. |

| | Encyclopedia4U - Spanish language - Encyclopedia Article |
| | Most Spaniards speaking other languages call Spanish castellano ( Castilian). | | | On the other hand, in some Latin American countries people prefer the word castellano because español is heard more as a nationality than the name of a language. | | | Actually, languages cannot be regulated, but RAE, in association with twenty-one other national language academies, exercises a conservative influence through its publication of dictionaries and widely respected grammar guides and style guides. |
