The main purpose of this template is to retain consistency across multiple translated pages. {{lang}} will detect the language page name, and display that language's translation by itself (e.g. if a template with Polish translations in it, when used on a Polish page, only the Polish translations will be displayed).
This works by using a #switch parser function based on the value of SUBPAGENAME. By default, {{lang}} will display English if no translation is available for a particular page.
Usage
- To define a language, simply use the code
| xx =and then add your translation after (replacing xx with the correct code from below).
| Available languages | ar, cs, da, de, es, fi, fr, hu, it, ja, ko, nl, no, pl, pt, pt-br, ro, ru, sv, zh-hans, zh-hant |
|---|
- Note:
pt-brwill default toptif no translation is given.
Options
- Forcing a particular language: the parameter
forceis available to force a particular language to show regardless of theSUBPAGENAME. It can be useful on some templates to force English to always show.
- Example:
{{lang|force=en}}
- Example:
Examples
{{lang
| de = Willkommen
| en = Welcome
| ja = Irashaimasu
| pl = Witaj
}}
