.Usage
[सम्पादन करी]The primary objective of this template (and of the other {{lang}}
templates) is to tag non-English text so that both human and machine readers are able to properly interpret, display and understand non-English text as part of an effort to move towards a semantic web. To that end, proper use of these templates help web browsers to choose the correct display font, text-to-speech screen readers to select a more appropriate pronunciation, search engines to better index and relate the context of the content, translation services to properly interpret the words, spell checkers to properly allow and/or require diacritics, and so on.
Important metadata
[सम्पादन करी]Regardless of the label that is displayed in front of the text (i.e.: "Ancient Greek:" vs. "Greek"), this template will always wrap the supplied Ancient Greek text inside of appropriate HTML <span>...</span>
tags – that is to say that the Ancient Greek text will be tagged using the ISO 639-2 and ISO-639-3 language code for Ancient Greek: "grc". The following example wikicode:
{{lang-grc|ἄτομος|átomos|indivisible, an atom}}
produces the following HTML:
<a href="/wiki/Ancient_Greek" title="Ancient Greek">Ancient Greek</a>:
- <span lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἄτομος</span>
- <span title="Ancient Greek transliteration" class="Unicode" style="white-space:normal; text-decoration: none"><i>átomos</i></span>
"indivisible, an atom"
This metadata identifies the enclosed text as Ancient Greek for the benefit of search engines, browsers, screen readers, translators, typesetters, and so on. To these "non-human readers", Ancient Greek (encoded as "grc") has important distinctions from Modern Greek (appropriately encoded using "ell", "gre" or "grk" by other {{lang}}
templates). For that reason, this template should never be used with Modern or Medieval or other Greek text.
