 | | Actually, every language that's not different for different regions should go with the ISO 639.1/.2 (2-letter/3-letter) language code alone ("de", "eo", "pl", "cs", etc.), while all where the region does matter should include it (2-letter uppercased ISO 3166 code; locale strings look like those we have used until now: "es-ES", "es-AR", "pt-PT", "en-US"). |
 | | In this case, we can use the generic identifier for the language family (romance: roa) from ISO 639.2 as the language code, and add an identifier for the specific language as the dialect (if one exists, we prefer to use the 3-letter SIL code). |
 | | Note that we don't (yet) support locale codes / tags in other forms than described above, though there may be drafted RFCs or IANA-registered tags for them. |
