How to identify the language codes in posts

I greatly appreciate the inclusion of all the translations in the initial post on this thread. however, I don’t know which specific languages correspond to these various abbreviations, and I don’t know where I could look up this data.

I tried searching for these abbreviations on google, but no results came up that were relevant. I would appreciate some help on this, tagging @Zuz_WMF , @Qgil-WMF , @NPhan_WMF. thanks.
