Gourt Home::Gourt :: List of ISO 639-2 codes
ISO 639 has three code lists. The following is a complete list of ISO 639-2 codes, including the corresponding ISO 639-1 codes where they exist. The codes are sorted by language name in the third column. The DIS/ISO 639-3 codes are not included.
The standard defines two codes for special situations: mul, for "multiple languages," and und, for "undetermined language." There is also a range reserved for local use: qaa-qtz.
The code list also gives zxx "no linguistic content" (added 2006-01-11), and mis "miscellaneous languages."*
Where two alpha-3 codes are given, the first is the "bibliographic" or B code and the second the "terminological" or T code.
