+=head1 NAME
+
+Locale::Codes::Language - standard codes for language identification
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+   use Locale::Codes::Language;
+
+   $lang = code2language('en');        # $lang gets 'English'
+   $code = language2code('French');    # $code gets 'fr'
+
+   @codes   = all_language_codes();
+   @names   = all_language_names();
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The C<Locale::Codes::Language> module provides access to standard codes used
+for identifying languages, such as those as defined in ISO 639.
+
+Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which
+specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO
+639 two-letter codes will be used.
+
+=head1 SUPPORTED CODE SETS
+
+There are several different code sets you can use for identifying
+languages. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a
+constant that is automatically exported by this module.
+
+For example, the two are equivalent:
+
+   $lang = code2language('en','alpha-2');
+   $lang = code2language('en',LOCALE_LANG_ALPHA_2);
+
+The codesets currently supported are:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<alpha-2, LOCALE_LANG_ALPHA_2>
+
+This is the set of two-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-1, such
+as 'he' for Hebrew.  It also includes additions to this set included
+in the IANA language registry.
+
+This is the default code set.
+
+=item B<alpha-3, LOCALE_LANG_ALPHA_3>
+
+This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) bibliographic codes from
+ISO 639-2 and 639-5, such as 'heb' for Hebrew.  It also includes
+additions to this set included in the IANA language registry.
+
+=item B<term, LOCALE_LANG_TERM>
+
+This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) terminologic codes from
+ISO 639.
