    Label: RFC 3066
    Definition: Internet RFC 3066 'Tags for the Identification of 
                    Languages' specifies a primary subtag which
                    is a two-letter code taken from ISO 639 part
                    1 or a three-letter code taken from ISO 639
                    part 2, followed optionally by a two-letter
                    country code taken from ISO 3166. When a
                    language in ISO 639 has both a two-letter and
                    three-letter code, use the two-letter code;
                    when it has only a three-letter code, use the
                    three-letter code. This RFC replaces RFC
                    1766.
