Remarks

The languages referenced in this class are represented by BCP-47 language tags. Each of these is a language identifier and not a locale name, although the two can be the same structurally. In the following example, the "en-US" language tag identifies American English (or the dialect of English spoken in the United States), but does not specify a location or any other conventions used in the United States (such as the measurement system or currency).

Microsoft.Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages.PrimaryLanguageOverride = "en-US";

Note

Language tags support the Unicode extensions "ca-" and "nu-", which can affect the numeral system or calendar used by globalization objects.

For more details, see Unicode Key/Type Definitions.
