    Please provide functionality to map a SystemLanguage value to an ISO code. For example 
    SystemLanguage.English
    to 
    "en"
    or 
    SystemLanguage.ChineseSimplified
    to 
    "zh-hans"
    .

    I'd assume such code exists in the Localization system already.

    We do have support for this. I don't think the direct API is exposed but it can all be done through the LocaleIdentifier struct.

    LocalieIdentifier li = System language.English;
    Li.Code will be "en".

    Hi Karl,

    could you please share in which library/package this 'LocaleIdentifier' is contained? Could not find this class in standard Unity 2020.3.26f1

    Thanks,
    Stefan

    Are you saying that I need to import an entire package just in order to map from Unity's own proprietary locale type to the representation that is industry standard?
