__NOTOC__ | |||
== Goal == | |||
This template can be used to indicate the language in a span of text to a web browser. | |||
{{inote|While the template can help web browsers find the right font and can help screen readers/text-to-speach browsers, it will usually not introduce a visual difference in the text.}} | |||
== Usage == | |||
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>'''lang'''<nowiki>|</nowiki>lang<nowiki>|</nowiki>text <nowiki>|</nowiki>''rtl=''<nowiki>}}</nowiki> | |||
All parameters but '''rtl''' are mandatory. | |||
; lang: Two-letter ISO 639-1 language code for the language of the text. | |||
; text: Text in that language. | |||
; rtl: If non-empty the text will be marked as being read right-to-left. | |||
== Examples == | |||
<nowiki>"Have a wonderful day!" is in Swedish "{{lang|sv|Ha en underbar dag!}}".</nowiki> | |||
"Have a wonderful day!" is in Swedish "{{lang|sv|Ha en underbar dag!}}". | |||
== Technical details == | |||
The template uses the HTML tag <code><span lang="" dir="rtl"></code> to mark that the piece text is in a different language than the rest of the page, and when '''rtl''' is non-empty also that the text is read right-to-left. | |||
== Related templates == | |||
* {{tl|language icon}} – Will indicate the language in a paragraph to both the reader and the web browser. | |||
