A language code may be set automatically by Twitter’s markup generators based on a logged-in Twitter user’s language setting or a language chosen in the markup generator.
<a

data-lang="es">
Twittear
</a>Twitter’s widget-js library will extract the most appropriate language from your widget’s DOM context if no language is provided in the widget markup. Pages which define a script or region subtag not supported by Twitter widgets will be mapped to the closest available language: e.g. pt-BR will use pt if Portuguese is available but a Brazilian regional localization is not.
United States English is the default if a page’s language code does not match any available translation.
Note: setting the language only affects the language of Twitter elements such as action text and timestamp display; Tweet text is always displayed in its originally authored language.
