What do these codes mean?

The language code refers to the ISO-639-2 and ISO-639-3 codes.

en (english)
fr (french)

The language code may be followed by a hyphen and a country code, a country variant or a script:

zh-CN
zh-Hant
fa-Latn (Persian written in Latin letters, a romanization)

A name in Latin letters of a language that is written in another script gets -Latn after the language code (fa-Latn, ar-Latn, ru-Latn, zh-Latn ...). The plain code (fa, ar, ru, zh ...) is for the names in the language's own script.

Accepted pseudo language codes:

post (postal codes)
icao, iata, faac, tcid (airport codes)
abbr (abbreviation)
link (link to website)
phon (phonetics)
piny (pinyin)
wkdt (wikidataid)
unlc (UNLOCODE)
nuts (EU NUTS code)
lauc (EU LAU code)

p. = preferred
s. = short
h. = historical
c. = colloquial
