CultureInfo.TwoLetterISOLanguageName Property

Definition

Gets the ISO 639-1 two-letter or ISO 639-3 three-letter code for the language of the current CultureInfo.

public:
 virtual property System::String ^ TwoLetterISOLanguageName { System::String ^ get(); };
public virtual string TwoLetterISOLanguageName { get; }
member this.TwoLetterISOLanguageName : string
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property TwoLetterISOLanguageName As String

Property Value

The ISO 639-1 two-letter code for the language of the current CultureInfo. If no two-letter code is available, the three-letter code from ISO 639-3 is used.

Examples

The following example lists the cultures whose TwoLetterISOLanguageName property does not consist of a two-letter language code.

using System;
using System.Globalization;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      // Get all available cultures on the current system.
      CultureInfo[] cultures = CultureInfo.GetCultures(CultureTypes.AllCultures);

      Console.WriteLine("{0,-32} {1,-13} {2,-6}\n", "Display Name",
                        "Name", "TwoLetterISOLanguageName");

      foreach (var culture in cultures) {
         // Exclude custom cultures.
         if ((culture.CultureTypes & CultureTypes.UserCustomCulture) == CultureTypes.UserCustomCulture)
            continue;

         // Exclude all two-letter codes.
         if (culture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName.Length == 2)
            continue;

         Console.WriteLine("{0,-32} {1,-13} {2,-6}", culture.DisplayName,
                           culture.Name, culture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName);
      }
   }

Remarks

For example, the two-letter abbreviation for English is "en". The TwoLetterISOLanguageName property value for the invariant culture is "iv".

Note

When communicating between processes or persisting data it is usually better to use the full CultureInfo.Name. Using just the language can lose context and data.

If ISO 639-1 does not define a two-letter language code for a particular culture, the TwoLetterISOLanguageName property returns a string that consists of three or more letters. For more information, see the example.
