Usage

This template is used inline in article prose or in tables and lists to indicate that the text in the first parameter is in the Hiberno-English language (also known as Irish English). It automatically italicizes the content by default as something other than Modern English.

{{lang-mis|1=|Hiberno-English content here}}

The |1= part is optional, if the Hiberno-English content does not contain the character "=".

For subsequent occurrences in the same page, the link to the language name should be turned off with |l=n or |link=no:

{{lang-mis|1=more Hiberno-English content here|l=n}}

The name of the language can be forced to the linguistics term "Irish English" instead of the literary term "Hiberno-English", with |as=y or |as=yes:

{{lang-mis|1=Irish English content here|as=y}}

This should only be done in contexts where the term "Irish English" has more currency than "Hiberno-English" or where it may otherwise be inappropriate (e.g. discussion of use of Irish English in what are today Wales and Scotland, which are not part of Ireland).

For subsequent occurrences in the same passage (e.g., a series of Hiberno-English to Modern English translations) it may be helpful to also abbreviate the language name display with |abbr=OEng, |abbr=OE, or |abbr=A-S:

{{lang-mis|1=another Hiberno-English example here|abbr=OEng}}

Doing so automatically also disables the link, as if |l=n had been specified. Using this parameter overrides the |a= parameter.
