This article contains the current list of available locale
ID (LCID) language codes.
Locale ID (LCID): A 32-bit value defined by Microsoft Windows that consists of a
language ID, sort ID, and reserved bits that identify a particular language.
For example, the LCID for English is 1033, and the LCID for Japanese is 1041.
The LCID language codes are used in Visual Basic for
Applications, some field codes, and files that are associated with a particular
language, such as Help files, proofing tools, and other Office components that
are usually stored together in a numbered folder in the "Program
Files\Microsoft Office\Office" folder.
NOTE: Microsoft does not provide proofing tools for all languages.
