Usage

{{Language|code|level}}
Where . . .

• code = the two-or-three code acronym for the language, and
• level = a number/letter indicating how well the language is spoken:
  • 0 — not able to speak
  • 1 — basic
  • 2 — intermediate
  • 3 — advanced
  • 4 — near native
  • 5 — professional
  • N — native

Find code

See Wikipedia: List of ISO 639-1 codes, and in the table of languages, look at the column saying "639-1". If your language isn't there, see Wikipedia: List of ISO 639-2 codes, and look at the Alpha-3 column. If it still isn't there, look at the ISO 639-3 codes list and click a letter. If it isn't there yet, write the language's name in English. You may also ask someone.

Categorisation
