<essenceTrackLanguage source="ISO 639.2">nld</essenceTrackLanguage>
-
<essenceTrackLanguage source="ISO 639.2">eng;spa</essenceTrackLanguage>
VOCABULARIES:
- PBCore recommends use of the ISO 639.2 3-letter language codes.
- If the essenceTrack has more than one language that is considered part of the same primary audio or text, then a combination statement can be crafted, e.g., eng;fre for the presence of both English and French in the primary audio. Separating three-letter language codes with a semi-colon (no additional spaces) is preferred.
