B.1 Introduction p. 51
This Annex provides guidelines for creating language Tables.
It is recommended that the characters and their positions in the Table are checked by people fluent in the appropriate language, and preferably endorsed by an appropriate responsible body.
It is recommended that character positions are carefully selected so that receiving entities, which do not support the specific Table, display symbols (glyphs) similar to the wanted symbols (glyphs) as far as possible.
B.2 Template for Single Shift Language Tables p. 51
The format and structure of the Table below shall be used to document the Language specific character codes used in the National Language selection mechanism.
It is recommended that a National Language Single Shift Table includes the characters represented in the GSM 7 bit default alphabet extension Table (as defined in subclause 6.2.1.1) in the same character position. This ensures the availability of these characters in case when the single shift mechanism is used.
Language - (Note. The actual Country and Table content will be annotated when the country is known).

NOTE 1:
This code is reserved for the extension to another extension table. On receipt of this code, a receiving entity shall display a space until another extension table is defined.
NOTE 2:
Void
NOTE 3:
This code is defined as a Page Break character and may be used for example in compressed CBS messages. Any mobile station which does not understand the GSM 7 bit default alphabet table extension mechanism will treat this character as Line Feed.
NOTE 4:
This code represents a control character and therefore must not be used for language specific characters.

NOTE 1:
This code is an escape to an extension of this table (either to the GSM 7 bit default alphabet extension table, see subclause 6.2.1.1, or a National Language Single Shift Table, see subclause 6.2.1.2.2). A receiving entity which does not understand the meaning of this escape mechanism shall display it as a space character.
