The toLocaleLowerCase()
method of String
values returns this string converted to lower case, according to any locale-specific case mappings.
The toLocaleLowerCase()
method of String
values returns this string converted to lower case, according to any locale-specific case mappings.
toLocaleLowerCase() toLocaleLowerCase(locales)
locales
Optional
A string with a BCP 47 language tag, or an array of such strings. Indicates the locale to be used to convert to lower case according to any locale-specific case mappings. For the general form and interpretation of the locales
argument, see the parameter description on the Intl
main page.
Unlike other methods that use the locales
argument, toLocaleLowerCase()
does not allow locale matching. Therefore, after checking the validity of the locales
argument, toLocaleLowerCase()
always uses the first locale in the list (or the default locale if the list is empty), even if this locale is not supported by the implementation.
A new string representing the calling string converted to lower case, according to any locale-specific case mappings.
The toLocaleLowerCase()
method returns the value of the string converted to lower case according to any locale-specific case mappings. toLocaleLowerCase()
does not affect the value of the string itself. In most cases, this will produce the same result as toLowerCase()
, but for some locales, such as Turkish, whose case mappings do not follow the default case mappings in Unicode, there may be a different result.
"ALPHABET".toLocaleLowerCase(); // 'alphabet' "\u0130".toLocaleLowerCase("tr") === "i"; // true "\u0130".toLocaleLowerCase("en-US") === "i"; // false const locales = ["tr", "TR", "tr-TR", "tr-u-co-search", "tr-x-turkish"]; "\u0130".toLocaleLowerCase(locales) === "i"; // true

13.0.00.12.0Before version 13.0.0, only the locale data foren-US is available by default. When other locales are specified, the function silently falls back to en-US . To make full ICU (locale) data available before version 13, see Node.js documentation on the --with-intl option and how to provide the data. |
