Parameter | Description |
---|---|
[given name] | Replace this term with the person's given or personal name(s). |
[patronymic] | Replace this term with the person's patronymic, or father's name. |
note | Optional: if "note=on", the following explanatory note is displayed: "The Arabic word bin (b.) or binti/binte (bt./bte.), if used, means 'son of' or 'daughter of' respectively." These abbreviations are often used by Malays in Malaysia and Singapore. If "note=off" or the "note" parameter is omitted, the explanatory note is not displayed. |
