Lingvoj means languages in Esperanto. From the frontpage of http://www.lingvoj.org/:
- http://www.lingvoj.org/lingvoj.rdf is the complete RDF file gathering currently the description of 522 languages, including all languages defined by ISO 639-1 and most of ISO 639-2 codes, and all languages having an active Wikipedia. Descriptions include all ISO 639 codes when available, owl:sameAs links to the URIs defining those languages in different RDF publications, and labels available in multilingual Wikipedias. About 17,000 such labels are available in the current version, in over 250 languages.
- Each individual language is identified by a URI in the namespace http://www.lingvoj.org/lang/. The fragment identifier is a language code conformant to BCP 47 .
The language code is a two-letters code defined by ISO 639-1 when available, or three-letters ISO 639-2, or 639-3 default the previous ones. It can also include regional tags, for example en-us or en-gb. Such codes are used as values of the "xml:lang" attribute, and also as the prefix of the Wikipedia in this language.
For example "zh" is the code for Chinese language. Therefore this language is identified by http://www.lingvoj.org/lang/zh .
Content negociation is used to redirect this URI either to a human-readable HTML page http://www.lingvoj.org/lingvo/zh.html , or to a RDF page containing the formal description http://www.lingvoj.org/lingvo/zh.rdf .- Version 1.0 of Lingvoj Ontology is used, declaring a Lingvo Class, its attributes such as ISO 639 codes and the way to link languages to FOAF resources (properties having Lingvo class as rdfs:range). Some examples of the use of those properties are available in my FOAF profile.
