I adapted and expanded on these: > BCP 47 is the [language tag](https://www.w3.org/TR/i18n-glossary/#def_language_tag) system used by Internet and Web standards (and many other places). It defines a method of using subtags from an IANA registry to form a string to describe the language of content. The subtags in the registry are primarily based on (and maintain strict compatibility with) ISO and UN standards for identifying languages, scripts, regions, and countries. BCP47 also forms the basis for [Unicode locales](https://www.w3.org/TR/i18n-glossary/#def_unicode_locale). -- GitHub Notification of comment by aphillips Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/bp-i18n-specdev/issues/13#issuecomment-1113660974 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-configReceived on Friday, 29 April 2022 19:41:30 UTC
