# BabelFish
BabelFish is a Python library to work with countries and languages.
[](https://github.com/Diaoul/babelfish/actions/workflows/test.yml)
## Usage
BabelFish provides scripts, countries and languages from their respective ISO
standards and a handy way to manipulate them with converters.
### Script
Script representation from 4-letter code (ISO-15924):
```python
>>> import babelfish
>>> script = babelfish.Script('Hira')
>>> script
```
### Country
Country representation from 2-letter code (ISO-3166):
```python
>>> country = babelfish.Country('GB')
>>> country
<Country [GB]>
```
Built-in country converters (name):
```python
>>> country = babelfish.Country.fromname('United Kingdom')
>>> country
<Country [GB]>
```
### Language
Language representation from 3-letter code (ISO-639-3):
```python
>>> language = babelfish.Language("eng")
>>> language
<Language [en]>
```
Country-specific language:
```python
>>> language = babelfish.Language('por', 'BR')
>>> language
<Language [pt-BR]>
```
Language with specific script:
```python
>>> language = babelfish.Language.fromalpha2('sr')
>>> language.script = babelfish.Script('Cyrl')
>>> language
<Language [sr-Cyrl]>
```
Built-in language converters (alpha2, alpha3b, alpha3t, name, scope, type and opensubtitles):
```python
>>> language = babelfish.Language('por', 'BR')
>>> language.alpha2
'pt'
>>> language.name
'Portuguese'
>>> language.scope
'individual'
>>> language.type
'living'
>>> language.opensubtitles
'pob'
>>> babelfish.Language.fromalpha3b('fre')
<Language [fr]>
```
