[jira] [Commented] (MARMOTTA-34) Literals with language tag should not have a type

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MARMOTTA-34?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13562930#comment-13562930 ] 

Andy Seaborne commented on MARMOTTA-34:
---------------------------------------

This changes in RDF 1.1
Such literals will have datatype rdf:langString.

SPARQL has already anticipated this:
datatype("foo"@en) => rdf:langString

If you are working in this area, then you might want to write defensive, future-proof code.

> Currently, KiWiValueFactory sets the type of a Literal to string if nothing is explicitly set, even if there is a language tag provided. 
> AFAIU, this is not the correct behaviour, Literals with a language tag are untyped.
