Languanologue # 11

Today we have the last day of facts on the Linguasphere Observatory.

Today we will see something about the Linguasphere Language Code and about Language codes in general.

A language code is a code that assigns letters or numbers as identifiers for languages. These codes are often used to organize library collections, to choose the correct localizations and translations in computing, and as a shorthand designation for forms.

The Linguasphere Language Code consists of three parts. The first part of the Linguaspere code is a decimal classification consisting of two numerals from 00 to 99 and this part is fixed and systematic. The second numeral is used to represent the zone into which each sector is divided. The second section of the Linguasphere language code consists of three capital letters: from AAA to ZZZ. The third and final part of the code consists of up to three lowercase letters used to identify a language or dialect with precision: from aaa to zzz.
