The language package -// therefore delays canonicalization and preserves information as much -// as possible. The Matcher, however, will always take into account that -// two different tags may represent the same language. -// -// By default, only legacy and deprecated tags are converted into their -// canonical equivalent. All other information is preserved. This approach makes -// the confidence scores more accurate and allows matchers to distinguish -// between variants that are otherwise lost. -// -// As a consequence, two tags that should be treated as identical according to -// BCP 47 or CLDR, like "en-Latn" and "en", will be represented differently. The -// Matcher handles such distinctions, though, and is aware of the -// equivalence relations. The CanonType type can be used to alter the -// canonicalization form. -// -// References -// -// BCP 47 - Tags for Identifying Languages http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47 -// -package language // import "golang.org/x/text/language" - -// TODO: explanation on how to match languages for your own locale-specific -// service. |
