<p><strong><code>Intl</code></strong> 객체는 각 언어에 맞는 문자비교, 숫자, 시간, 날짜비교를 제공하는, ECMAScript 국제화 API를 위한 이름공간입니다. {{jsxref("Collator")}}, {{jsxref("NumberFormat")}}, {{jsxref("DateTimeFormat")}}는 <code>Intl</code> 객체의 속성을 위한 생성자입니다. 이 페이지는 일반적인 국제화의 기능을 수행하는 객체의 생성자들과 언어를 구분하는 함수들 뿐만 아니라 이러한 속성들에 대해서도 다루고 있습니다.</p>

<p>The internationalization constructors as well as several language sensitive methods of other constructors (listed under {{anch("See_also", "See also")}}) use a common pattern for identifying locales and determing the one they will actually use: they all accept <code>locales</code> and <code>options</code> arguments, and negotiate the requested locale(s) against the locales they support using an algorithm specified in the <code>options.localeMatcher</code> property.</p>
<h3 id="locales_매개변수"><code>locales</code> 매개변수</h3>
<p>The <code>locales</code> argument must be either a string holding a <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5646">BCP 47 language tag</a>, or an array of such language tags. If the <code>locales</code> argument is not provided or is undefined, the runtime's default locale is used.</p>
<p>A BCP 47 language tag identifies a language or locale (the difference between the two is fuzzy). In their most common form it can contain, in this order: a language code, a script code, and a country code, all separated by hyphens. Examples:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>"hi"</code>: Hindi.</li>
<li><code>"de-AT"</code>: German as used in Austria.</li>
<li><code>"zh-Hans-CN"</code>: Chinese written in simplified characters as used in China.</li>
</ul>
<p>The subtags identifying languages, scripts, countries (regions), and (rarely used) variants in BCP 47 language tags can be found in the <a href="http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry">IANA Language Subtag Registry</a>.</p>
<p>BCP 47 also allows for extensions, and one of them matters to the JavaScript internationalization functions: the <code>"u"</code> (Unicode) extension. It can be used to request a customization of the locale-specific behavior of a {{jsxref("Collator")}}, {{jsxref("NumberFormat")}}, or {{jsxref("DateTimeFormat")}} object. Examples:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>"de-DE-u-co-phonebk"</code>: Use the phonebook variant of the German sort order, which expands umlauted vowels to character pairs: ä → ae, ö → oe, ü → ue.</li>
<li><code>"th-TH-u-nu-thai"</code>: Use Thai digits (๐, ๑, ๒, ๓, ๔, ๕, ๖, ๗, ๘, ๙) in number formatting.</li>
<li><code>"ja-JP-u-ca-japanese"</code>: Use the Japanese calendar in date and time formatting, so that 2013 is expressed as the year 25 of the Heisei period, or 平成25.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="로케일_조정">로케일 조정</h3>
<p>The <code>locales</code> argument, after stripping off all Unicode extensions, is interpreted as a prioritized request from the application. The runtime compares it against the locales it has available and picks the best one available. Two matching algorithms exist: the <code>"lookup"</code> matcher follows the Lookup algorithm specified in <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4647#section-3.4">BCP 47</a>; the <code>"best fit"</code> matcher lets the runtime provide a locale that's at least, but possibly more, suited for the request than the result of the Lookup algorithm. If the application doesn't provide a <code>locales</code> argument, or the runtime doesn't have a locale that matches the request, then the runtime's default locale is used. The matcher can be selected using a property of the <code>options</code> argument (see below).</p>
<p>If the selected language tag had a Unicode extension substring, that extension is now used to customize the constructed object or the behavior of the function. Each constructor or function supports only a subset of the keys defined for the Unicode extension, and the supported values often depend on the language tag. For example, the <code>"co"</code> key (collation) is only supported by {{jsxref("Collator")}}, and its <code>"phonebk"</code> value is only supported for German.</p>
<h3 id="options_매개변수"><code>options</code> 매개변수</h3>
<p>The <code>options</code> argument must be an object with properties that vary between constructors and functions. If the <code>options</code> argument is not provided or is undefined, default values are used for all properties.</p>
<p>One property is supported by all language sensitive constructors and functions: The <code>localeMatcher</code> property, whose value must be a string <code>"lookup"</code> or <code>"best fit"</code> and which selects one of the locale matching algorithms described above.</p>
