Usage

Lua error in Module:Lang/documentor_tool at line 29: attempt to index local 'content' (a nil value). The language template {{lang-x}} identifies foreign language text. The term or phrase is the only mandatory parameter. The text is formatted according to recommendations in Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Text formatting#Foreign terms; italics for Latinate languages, normal for others.

The template should generally be placed after the English translation of the foreign term or phrase.

The parameter |links=no prevents the language name from being linked.

The parameter |translit= allows for a Romanization to be identified. The templates that have this parameter are listed here. (This parameter is not supported by lang-x templates for languages that are already written in Latin script.)

The parameter |lit= enables a literal translation (in English) to be given. It is being rolled out to these templates and so may be available for {{lang-x}}.

Parameters

{{#lst:Template:Lang-x/doc/parameters|lang_xx_parameters}}

Examples

  • All Quiet on the Western Front ({{lang-de|Im Westen nichts Neues|lit=In the West Nothing New}}) is a novel by Erich Maria Remarque.
