Cldr v0.12.0 Cldr.LanguageTag.Parser View Source

Parses a CLDR language tag (also referred to as locale string).

The applicable specification is from CLDR which is similar based upon RFC5646 with some variations.

This module provides functions to parse a language tag (locale string). To be consistent with the rest of Cldr, the term locale string will be preferred.
