 ## Configure languages
 
 This is the default language configuration:
 
 {{< code-toggle config=languages />}}
 
+In the above, `en` is the language key.
+
+{{% note %}}
+Each language key must conform to the syntax described in [RFC 5646]. You must use hyphens to separate subtags. For example:
+
+- `en`
+- `en-GB`
+- `pt-BR`
+
+[RFC 5646]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5646#section-2.1
+{{% /note %}}

 This is an example of a site configuration for a multilingual project. Any key not defined in a `languages` object will fall back to the global value in the root of your site configuration.
