This template will return the name of a language given the language code. This template is made specifically for the language codes used in MediaWiki (not necessarily ISO codes, but see {{Language/ISO 639/en}}).
Examples
- {{language|ar}} → Arabic
- {{language|is}} → Icelandic
- {{language|zh-hant}} → Traditional Chinese
The second parameter can be used to set the desired output language, otherwise it will return the name in the user's interface language (if a translation exists).
- {{language|en|fr}} → anglais
- {{language|en|he}} → אנגלית
You can also use this template's subpages directly to archive the same effect (which is also easier on the servers).
- {{language/en|de}} → Template:Language/en
- {{language/zh-hans|de}} → Template:Language/zh-hans
