Template:Lang

For tagging inline usage of foreign words. Typically inside the meaning column of the Localisation Table. This is important for accessibility, as well as correct font rendering in certain languages.

Usage

Provide a language code followed by text in that language.

{{lang|language|foreign word or phrase}}

DOES NOT need to be used in the Name column of the Localisation table, as the the appropriate values are already set in that column. However, it SHOULD be used for foreign words in the Meaning/Explanation column.

language codes for the official localisations:

• pt-BR for Brazilian Portuguese
• fr for French
• de for German
• it for Italian
• ja for Japanese
• ko for Korean
• ru for Russian
• zh-Hans for Chinese Simplified
• zh-Hant for Chinese Traditional
• es for Spanish

Example

The following code:

{{lang|ja|深層の港 <i>Shinsō no minato</i>}} (Deep Docks)

{{lang|zh-Hans|深坞 <i>Shēn wù</i>}} (Deep Docks)

{{lang|es|<i>Muelles Profundos</i>}} (Deep Docks)

Gives:

深層の港 Shinsō no minato (Deep Docks)

深坞 Shēn wù (Deep Docks)

Muelles Profundos (Deep Docks)

Note the first character is rendered differently in Chinese and Japanese, despite sharing a unicode codepoint.

No description.
