Codes for the Representation of Names of LanguagesCodes arranged alphabetically by alpha-3/ISO 639-2 Code Note: ISO 639-2 is the alpha-3 code in Codes for
the representation of names of languages-- Part 2. There are 21
languages that have alternative codes for bibliographic or terminology
purposes.
In those cases, each is listed separately and they are designated as "B" (bibliographic)
or "T" (terminology). In all other cases there is only one
ISO 639-2 code. Multiple codes assigned to the same language are to be
considered synonyms. ISO 639-1 is the alpha-2 code. The NDMSO database is unavailable at this time. Please try back again shortly. |
