Usage

Template {{lang-x}} indicates to readers the original form of a term or phrase in a foreign language. 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 Latin-script languages, regular 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= enables a transliteration (of the original text with the Latin alphabet) to be given. The templates that have this param 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}}.

Examples

The following examples show translations from Polish and German.

Edit

  • Katowice is located in Upper Silesia ({{lang-pl|Górny Śląsk}}).
  • The Seafarers of Catan ({{lang-de|Die Seefahrer von Catan}}) is an expansion of the board game The Settlers of Catan.
  • Albert the Bear ({{lang-pl|Albrecht Niedźwiedź|links=no}})
  • All Quiet on the Western Front ({{lang-pl|Na Zachodzie bez zmian|lit=In the West Nothing New}}) is a novel by Erich Maria Remarque.
