Language in which to return the results. If lang is unspecified, english is the default. For supported languages see wb_languages(). Possible values of lang are in the iso2 column.

Value
A data.table/data.frame of information about the end point. A data.table is used instead of a plain data.frame so that large tables (e.g. the ~28k rows returned by wb_indicators()) print truncated to a handful of rows instead of flooding the console.
