Source language of a translation

Used only when the <ContributorRole> code value is B06, B08 or B10 indicating a translator, to specify the source language from which the translation was made. This element makes it possible to specify a translator’s exact responsibility when a work involves translation from two or more languages. Optional, and repeatable in the event that a single person has been responsible for translation from two or more languages.

Format
Fixed length, three lower-case letters, based on ISO 639-2/B. Note that ISO 639 specifies that these codes should always be in lower-case
