An inline formatting template, based on {{Lang}}, for indicating the official/defacto name in a language other than English. By default, the native name is displayed in italics, followed by the language's name in parentheses.

The template's defaults can be overridden and the parenthesis excluded, in which case there may be no visible changes to the text where it's used. An HTML span, however, still identifies the native name as a linguistic element, meaning that web browsers and screen readers can select a particular font, formatting, pronunciation, etc., for it.

For multiple native names, use {{native name list}}
