Alejandro García Matarredona submitted an update to the
langnames
package.
Version number: 2.0
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Name languages and their genetic affiliations consistently
Announcement text:
Langnames v2.0 debugs, improves and adds new funcionality to the new package, in addition to presenting a new co-author: निरंजन (https://ctan.org/author/niranjan). Namely, it corrects a breaking bug with a stray csname macro, it switches from a key-value to a much faster command defining framework for linking codes to language names, and it adds new macros for users to extend the functionality of the package.
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/langnames More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/langnames
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Manfred Lotz CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs .

langnames – Name languages and their genetic affiliations consistently
This package attempts to make the typing of language names, codes, and families slightly easier by providing macros to access pre-defined language—code—family combinations from two important databases, as well as the possibility to create new combinations. It may be particularly useful for large, collaborative projects as well as typologically minded ones with a variety of language examples.
