Template:Lang/doc

The purpose of this template is to indicate that a span of text belongs to a particular language.

Usage

{{lang|language tag|text}}

The language tag should consist of an ISO 639 language code.

The ISO 639 language code is a two- or three-letter abbreviation, in lowercase, of the language's name. Japanese, for example, has the code ja:

• {{lang|ja|蓬莱山輝夜}} → 蓬莱山輝夜
