           standardized nomenclature used to classify languages. Each
           language is assigned a two-letter (set 1) and three-letter
           lowercase abbreviation (sets 2–5). Part 1 of the standard, ISO
           639-1 defines the two-letter codes, and Part 3 (2007), ISO 639-3,
           defines the three-letter codes, aiming to cover all known natural
           languages, largely superseding the ISO 639-2 three-letter code
           standard. "
