Convenience template for placing native names (of places like countries and towns) in infoboxes. Uses {{lang}} and {{language icon}}.

Usage

{{native name|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;
  • icon is an optional parameter to exclude the language icon by using the value "no".

Examples

{{Infobox settlement
  |name        = The Hague
  |native_name = {{native name|nl|Den Haag}}
}}

results in

The Hague
Den Haag  (Dutch)

while

{{Infobox country
  |conventional_long_name = French Republic
  |native_name            = {{native name|fr|République française|icon=no}}
}}

results in

French Republic
République française
