Internationalization & Localization
|
||
|
-----------------------------------

`draft` `optional`
|

|
## Abstract
|
||
|
|
||
|
Internationalization and Localization enhances Nostr's adaptability across varied linguistic and cultural landscapes.
|
||
|
By incorporating a `language` tag specifically designed for internationalization & localization within each note,
|
||
|
Nostr improves its functionality in terms of `search` or `translation` capabilities and even beyond.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## `language` tag field
|
||
|
|
||
|
A new language tag field is optional, but if not specified it will categorized as `en` (Using two letter ISO 639-1 language code).
|
||
|
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"tags": [
|
||
|
["language", 'en']
|
||
|
]
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
This addition not only facilitates the categorization of notes by language but also enables users to subscribe to content exclusively in their preferred language.
|
||
|
This broadens Nostr's accessibility and relevance to a global audience, ensuring that Nostr users can engage with content that resonates with their linguistic and cultural preferences.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Possible Extensions
|
||
|
|
||
|
A Nostr Profile MAY support these extensions:
|
||
|
- `allowed_language: ['en', 'jp']` - This tells a clients which language they prefer.
|
||
|
- `language: 'fr'` - This tells this profile "speaks" in which language.
