ISO 639-3: Difference between revisions

'''ISO 639-3''' is a three-letter {{wpw|language code}} standard by the {{wpw|International Organization for Standardization}} (ISO). It is widely used online for tagging and supporting content in multiple languages. After two rejected requests in 2008 and 2018, the identifier <code>tok</code> was adopted for [[Toki Pona]] on 20 January 2022.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/tok|title=tok &#124; ISO 639-3|website=SIL International|access-date=2023-11-20}}</ref>

This {{wpw|metadata}} enables unambiguous language detection, which will ideally enable support for Toki Pona hyphenation and ligature rules, [[Text-to-speech|speech synthesis]], and spelling and grammar checking. Toki Pona editions of more works will also be created.
