2.1 Language Code Identifiers

  • Article

LCIDs are identifiers used to specify localizable information. They are also known as culture identifiers in the Microsoft .NET Framework environment.

The name of a culture consists of its [ISO-639] language code, its [ISO-3166] country/region code, and an optional [ISO-15924] script tag for the written language. For example, the name of the culture in which the language is Bosnian (as written in Latin script and used in the Bosnia and Herzegovina region) is bs-Latn-BA.<1><2><3>
