Furthermore, selected minority languages and certain non-European languages used by a considerable number of users in Europe, selected according to the principles described below, are covered.

The names of the languages used in the present document are aligned with those used in ISO/IEC standards for language codes (in particular [21]) to the largest possible extent.
