The `Language` method on a `Page` object returns the language object for the given page. The language object points to the language definition in the site configuration.
You can also use the `Language` method on a `Site` object. See [details].
## Methods
The examples below assume the following in your site configuration:
{{< code-toggle file=hugo >}}
[languages.de]
languageCode = 'de-DE'
languageDirection = 'ltr'
languageName = 'Deutsch'
weight = 2
{{< /code-toggle >}}
Lang
: (`string`) The language tag as defined by [RFC 5646].
```go-html-template
{{ .Language.Lang }} → de
```
LanguageCode
: (`string`) The language code from the site configuration.
```go-html-template
{{ .Language.LanguageCode }} → de-DE
```
LanguageDirection
: (`string`) The language direction from the site configuration, either `ltr` or `rtl`.
```go-html-template
{{ .Language.LanguageDirection }} → ltr
```
LanguageName
: (`string`) The language name from the site configuration.
```go-html-template
{{ .Language.LanguageName }} → Deutsch
```
Weight
: (`int`) The language weight from the site configuration which determines its order in the slice of languages returned by the `Languages` method on a `Site` object.
```go-html-template
{{ .Language.Weight }} → 2
```
