NAME

7       identification

SYNOPSIS

10          use Locale::Codes::LangFam;
11
12          $lext = code2langfam('apa');                 # $lext gets 'Apache languages'
13          $code = langfam2code('Apache languages');    # $code gets 'apa'
14
15          @codes   = all_langfam_codes();
16          @names   = all_langfam_names();

DESCRIPTION

19       The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes
20       used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO
21       639-5.
22
23       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which
24       specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5
25       language family codes will be used.
26

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

28       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying
29       language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or
30       a constant that is automatically exported by this module.
31
32       For example, the two are equivalent:
33
34          $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha');
35          $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA);
36
37       The codesets currently supported are:
38
39       alpha
40           This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5
41           such as 'apa' for Apache languages.
42
43           This is the default code set.
