+### Programming language detection
+
+Copilot.el detects the programming language of a buffer based on the major-mode name, stripping the `-mode` part. Resulting languageId should match table here https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/identifiers#_known-language-identifiers.
+You can add unusual major-mode mappings to `copilot-major-mode-alist`. Without the proper language set suggestions may be of poorer quality.
