specifying their own explicit xml:lang attribute<br />

value. The form of the xml:lang attribute is<br />

c<strong>on</strong>strained by Internet specificati<strong>on</strong>s,<br />

particularly IETF RFC 1766, Tags for the<br />

Identificati<strong>on</strong> of Languages. Such tags c<strong>on</strong>sist<br />

of a 2-letter language code from ISO 639 (see<br />

http://www.oasis-open.org/cover/iso639a.html),<br />

opti<strong>on</strong>ally followed by a two letter country code<br />

from ISO 3166 (see http://www.oasisopen.org/cover/country3166.html).<br />

For example,<br />

"de" or "en-GB" Alternatively, they may be<br />

codes from the IANA registry at<br />

http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-tags.<br />

Remaining languages should use SIL<br />

Ethnologue codes (see<br />

http://www.ethnologue.com/codes/).<br />

opti<strong>on</strong>al This attribute provides a slight extensi<strong>on</strong> bey<strong>on</strong>d<br />

the capabilities of the xml:lang attribute. For<br />

many languages, it is enough to specify the<br />

language itself, and the country where it is<br />

spoken (say, Canadian vs. French dialects of the<br />

French language). However, there <str<strong>on</strong>g>are</str<strong>on</strong>g> cases<br />

where a given language community may use<br />

multiple writing systems: either different<br />

character sets and character usage rules;<br />

different spelling or other c<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>s; etc. In<br />

such cases, the particular script system used for<br />

writing the current work (or element within a<br />

work) must be specified via this attribute. This<br />

attribute inherits in precisely the same manner as<br />

xml:lang.<br />

20.2. Normative values for the type attribute, by element<br />

The heading for each basic element type below, indicates whether the list of values<br />

provided is extensible (by adding names beginning with "x-", or n<strong>on</strong>-extensible).<br />

Users who find values potentially of general use, that <str<strong>on</strong>g>are</str<strong>on</strong>g> not already provided, <str<strong>on</strong>g>are</str<strong>on</strong>g> asked<br />

to send them to the editors for possible incorporati<strong>on</strong> into future versi<strong>on</strong>s of the<br />

specificati<strong>on</strong>. Likewise, users who discover any substantial ambiguity in the values<br />

provided, <str<strong>on</strong>g>are</str<strong>on</strong>g> asked to notify us and to provide examples and explanati<strong>on</strong>s, so that we can<br />

attempt to rectify any such problem.<br />
