Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

Template {{Lang-fr}} indicates to readers the original form of a term or phrase in French language. The term or phrase is the only mandatory parameter. The text is formatted according to recommendations in Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Text formatting#Foreign terms (italics for Latin-script languages, regular for others).

The template should generally be placed after the English translation of the foreign term or phrase.

The parameter |links=no prevents the language name from being linked.

The parameter |lit= enables a literal translation to be given. It is being rolled out to these templates and so may be available for {{Lang-fr}}.

Examples

The following examples show translations from German.
