Language Identifier Constants and Strings

Important

Language identifier constants are deprecated and their use is discouraged. Use of locale names instead of locale identifiers is always preferable.

See language identifier for a description of language identifiers.

A primary or sublanguage identifier can be user-defined or predefined. For the predefined primary language identifiers with their valid sublanguage identifiers, see [MS-LCID]: Windows Language Code Identifier (LCID) Reference.

Note

If there is no sublanguage identifier to use with a primary language identifier, your application should use SUBLANG_DEFAULT. It should use SUBLANG_NEUTRAL for resources that are the same for all sublanguages of a primary language.

A user-defined primary language identifier has a value in the range 0x0200 to 0x03ff. All other values are reserved for operating system use.

A user-defined sublanguage identifier has a value in the range 0x20 to 0x3f. All other values are reserved for operating system use.
