babel | French and Russian simultaneously

Post by FatherTorque »

Hello, Comrades

could anyone please explain, is it possible to use two non-English languages in the Latex-document simultaneously? I am using babel package and I need to use french and russian.

Code: Select all

\usepackage[french]{babel}
\usepackage[russian]{babel}
works without each other, but being aplied together they clash.
Using only one of them (hyphenations is never mind now for me) results in error messages.

T.I.A.

Hi,

the options can be combined. Here is an example, which works for me:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[french,russian]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
 \begin{document}
\selectlanguage{french}
Ceci est un texte.
\selectlanguage{russian}
Это некоторый текст.
\end{document}
