ISO standards
The coding of data languages is based on the
ISO639-2 standard.
This standard is not sufficient for coding languages such as Simplified Chinese,Traditional Chinese and Portuguese, and Brazilian Portuguese. To support these languages, language coding is done according to the ISO standards that are used for Java programs.
A data language code consists of these codes:
- A language code that is based on the ISO 639-1 standard.
- Optional: a country code based on the ISO 3166-1 standard.
The language code and the country code are separated by an underscore (_).
