Remarks
Use the Language property of either the SPFile or SPWeb class, or one of the GetServerLanguage methods of the SPRegionalSettings class, to return a single language. Otherwise, use one of the GetInstalledLanguages methods of the SPRegionalSettings class to return the collection of languages in a deployment of Windows SharePoint Services. Use an indexer to return a single language from the collection. For example, if the collection is assigned to a variable named myLanguages, use myLanguages[index] in C#, or myLanguages(index) in Visual Basic .NET, where index is the index number of the language in the collection.
