About this language code
ASCL language pages are the end point of the hierarchy. They are the most specific record level exposed in the official 2025 structure and should be used when the language has been identified precisely enough for final coding.
If your dataset is less precise, move back to the parent narrow group or sub family page and confirm whether a broader code is more appropriate.
