ISO codes aren't really an indication what is a language and what isn't
nowadays. After all, Moldovan language
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moldovan_language) also has an ISO code...

As for your translation to Croatian, it's similar to how an American most
likely won't be able to write properly in British English - his English
will be well understood by the Britons, of course, but it will still have
noticable americanisms.
