Convenience template for placing native names (of places like countries and towns) in infoboxes. Uses {{tl|lang}} and {{tl|language icon}}.
{{lua|Module:Lang}}
An inline formatting template, based on {{tl|lang}}, for indicating the language in which a native name has been given. By default, the native name is displayed in italics, followed by the language's name in parentheses. For example:
: {{native name{{\sandbox}}|de|Deutschland}}


===Usage===
The template's defaults can be overridden and the parenthesis excluded, in which case there may be no visible changes to the text where it's used. An [[HTML]] ''[[Span and div|span]]'', however, still identifies the native name as a linguistic element, meaning that web browsers and [[screen reader]]s can select a particular font, formatting, pronunciation, etc., for it.
<nowiki>{{native name|</nowiki>''language tag''|''text''|[icon=''no'']}}
where
*''language tag'' is the code for the native language (see the [[list of ISO 639 codes]]);
*''text'' is the native name;
*<tt>icon</tt> is an optional parameter to exclude the language icon by using the value "no".


===Examples===
== Syntax ==
<pre style="float:left; clear:both;">
 
{{Infobox settlement
; Common
  |name       = The Hague
: {{tc|native name|<{{var|[[IETF language tag]]}}>|<{{var|the native name}}>}}
  |native_name = {{native name|nl|Den Haag}}
 
}}
The code for the example at the start of this documentation would, therefore, be:
</pre>
: <code><nowiki>{{native name|de|Deutschland}}</nowiki></code>

An inline formatting template, based on {{lang}}, for indicating the language in which a native name has been given. By default, the native name is displayed in italics, followed by the language's name in parentheses. For example:

Deutschland  (German)

The template's defaults can be overridden and the parenthesis excluded, in which case there may be no visible changes to the text where it's used. An HTML span, however, still identifies the native name as a linguistic element, meaning that web browsers and screen readers can select a particular font, formatting, pronunciation, etc., for it.

Syntax

Common
{{native name|<IETF language tag>|<the native name>}}

The code for the example at the start of this documentation would, therefore, be:

{{native name|de|Deutschland}}

Parameters

Required parameters shown in bold italics.

Parameter name Description and example/s
[first unnamed] The IETF language tag code for the native language. French, for instance, is "fr"; Spanish is "es"; Arabic is "ar"; etc.
[second unnamed] The native name, in the native language (with accents, etc.).
italics
(or italic) 		Set to "off" or "no" to disable displaying the native name in italics.
|italics=off
paren
(or icon) 		Set to "omit", "off" or "no" to suppress the appearance of the native language's name in a parenthesis after the native name.
|paren=omit
nbsp Set to "omit" or "no" to suppress the addition of a second space between the native name and the native language's name in brackets.
Generally works in tandem with the italics or italic and/or paren or icon switches, as the automatic addition of the second
space prevents the native name in italics from appearing to lean into the following bracket.
|nbsp=omit
parensize
(previously fontsize) 		Use to specify a font-size for the parenthesis. Per MOS:FONTSIZE, do not make this text smaller in infoboxes, since the text is already at 88% of normal.
|parensize=90%
nolink Set to anything (e.g. "on") to suppress the appearance of the native language's name as a link.
script (deprecated) when needed, include ISO 15924 in {{{1}}} IETF language tag; e.g. 'sr-Cyrl' Specifies the ISO 15924 script. E.g. "Cyrl", "Arab", "Hans"...
More complex examples

Code and result for the same name "Deutschland" above but with italics and nbsp switched off, nolink switched on and a parensize of 90%:

{{native name|de|Deutschland|italics=off|nbsp=omit|nolink=on|parensize=90%}}
Deutschland (German)

Retaining no italics but suppressing the parenthesis:

{{native name|de|Deutschland|italics=off|paren=omit}}
Deutschland

This result is the same as if the {{lang}} template had been used.

Other examples

Code Result 
{{Infobox settlement
| name = The Hague
| native_name = {{native name|nl|Den Haag}}
}}
Script error: No such module "Settlement short description".
The Hague

Den Haag  (Dutch)
{{Infobox country
| conventional_long_name = French Republic
| native_name = {{native name|fr|République française|paren=omit}}
}}
République française
French Republic
