Class: Locale

The Locale class is a base class for the language classes.

RFC

A Language-Tag consists of:
langtag                           ; generated tag
          -or- private-use        ; a private use tag

langtag       = (language
                   ["-" script]
                   ["-" region]
                   *("-" variant)
                   *("-" extension)
                   ["-" privateuse])

language      = "en", "ale", or a registered value

script        = "Latn", "Cyrl", "Hant" ISO 15924 codes

region        = "US", "CS", "FR" ISO 3166 codes
                "419", "019",  or UN M.49 codes

variant       = "rozaj", "nedis", "1996", multiple subtags can be used in a tag

extension     = single letter followed by additional subtags; more than one extension
                may be used in a language tag

private-use   = "x-" followed by additional subtags, as many as are required
                Note that these can start a tag or appear at the end (but not
                in the middle)
