# mlanguage\_name\_list(3m17n)

## NAME

mlanguage\_name\_list -

## SYNOPSIS

**MPlist**\* **mlanguage\_name\_list** (MSymbol *language*, MSymbol *target*, MSymbol *script*, MSymbol *territory*)

## DESCRIPTION

Return the language names written in the specified language. The **mlanguage\_name\_list()** function returns a plist of LANGUAGE's names written in TARGET language. SCRIPT and TERRITORY, if not **Mnil**, specifies which script and territory to concern at first.

LANGUAGE and TARGET must be a symbol whose name is an ISO639-2 3-letter language code or an ISO639-1 2-letter language codes. TARGET may be **Mnil**, in which case, the language of the current locale is used. If locale is not set or is C, English is used.

SCRIPT and TERRITORY must be a symbol whose name is a script and territory name of a locale (e.g. 'TW', 'SG') respectively.

## RETURN VALUE

If the translation is available, this function returns a non-empty plist. The first element has key **MText** and the value is an M-text of a translated language name. If the succeeding elements also have key **MText**, their values are M-texts of alternate translations.

If no translation is available, `NULL` is returned.

The returned plist should not be modified nor freed.
