= Two commands to set up the language aspects=
Today, with the international use of the UTF-8 standard for input and output encoding, you only need two commands and , with the '''[[#Language tags|language tag]]''' you want in brackets:* ; <cmd>mainlanguage[tag]</cmd>, : to set the language of auto-generated language elements, like the title of the table of contents or the appendix. * ; <cmd>language[tag]</cmd>, : to change the hyphenation rules, quotation marks, all that sort of thing, to that of a different language. (The default language is English.)
