API documentation / Codes / Language

GET: /codes/language

Get information about language codes used at ProZ.com.

ProZ.com API endpoints accept and return many (but not all) language codes respresented in the ISO 639-3 standard.

Internally, ProZ.com language codes are based on an earlier version of the ISO 639-2 standard.

Additional non-standard codes have been added over the years as new languages were needed which didn't yet have ISO codes. These codes now have some non-standard overlap with newer versions of the ISO standards.

Most non-standard language codes begin with a "." character.

ProZ.com API endpoints will first match ISO 639-3 codes, and then fallback to the [deprecated] custom codes if there was no match.

All ProZ.com API clients must pass ISO 639-3 codes. Backwards-compatibility with custom ProZ.com codes is provided only as a fail-safe, and support for the custom codes may be removed in the future.

Parameters

codes: One or more comma-separated language codes. If specified, only results for these codes are returned.
