Codes for the
Representation of Names
of Languages
ISO 639 codes arranged alphabetically
by alpha-3 code: downloadable text files
These files may be used to download the list of language codes with
their language names, for example into a database. To read the files,
please
note that one line of text contains one entry. An alpha-3 (bibliographic)
code, an alpha-3 (terminologic) code (when given), an alpha-2 code (when
given), an English name, and a French name of a language are all separated
by pipe (|) characters. If one of these elements is not applicable to
the entry, the field is
left empty, i.e., a pipe (|) character immediately follows the preceding entry. The Line terminator
is the LF character.
Two versions are available:
