The variable `lang` is expected to be a BCP47 language code. However,
the LaTeX package "babel" used for some language-specific conversions
requires a different language description. That's what `babel-lang`
contains, it's the language given in a way that's understood by that
LaTeX package.
See here for the conversion code:
