```
public class Languages
extends java.lang.Object
```
Language codes.
Language codes are typically loaded from resource files. These are UTF-8 encoded text files. They are systematically named following the pattern:

org/apache/commons/codec/language/bm/${NameType.getName() languages.txt

The format of these resources is the following:
- Language: a single string containing no whitespace
- End-of-line comments: Any occurrence of '//' will cause all text following on that line to be discarded as a comment.
- Multi-line comments: Any line starting with '/*' will start multi-line commenting mode. This will skip all content until a line ending in '*' and '/' is found.
- Blank lines: All blank lines will be skipped.
