Template:Lang-scn/doc

Usage
Template indicates to readers the original form of a term or phrase in  language. The term or phrase is the only mandatory parameter. The text is formatted according to recommendations in Manual of Style/Text formatting (italics for Latin-script languages, regular for others).

The template should generally be placed after the English translation of the foreign term or phrase.

The parameter no prevents the language name from being linked.

The parameter translit enables a transliteration (of the original text with the Latin alphabet) to be given. The templates that have this param are listed here. (This parameter is not supported by  templates for languages that are already written in Latin script.)

The parameter lit enables a literal translation (in English) to be given. It is being rolled out to these templates and so may be available for.
