What you are trying to do is not possible.
You need to use a WXS pattern instead.

The list pattern can only cope with whitespace-separated items, not with
arbitrary concatenations.

In any case, the RFC 3066 language codes are an open set.  You should
either accept any arbitrary string of ASCII alphas, digits, and hyphen
(you can rule out initial, final, and consecutive hyphens if you like),
or else a fixed set of values that your application understands.
