python-langcodes 3.3.0

Python library for working with language codes

This package provides a Python library for working with and comparing language codes.

python-langcodes implements BCP 47, the IETF Best Current Practices on Tags for Identifying Languages. BCP 47 is also known as RFC 5646. It subsumes ISO 639 and is backward compatible with it, and it also implements recommendations from the Unicode CLDR.

python-langcodes can also refer to a database of language properties and names, built from Unicode CLDR and the IANA subtag registry, if you install python-language-data.
