var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
myFrame = myDoc.pages[0].textFrames.firstItem();

// following three lines are not working
myFrame.parentStory.appliedLanguage = app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName('zh-cn');
myFrame.parentStory.appliedLanguage = app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName("Chinese: Simplified");
myFrame.texts[0].appliedLanguage = app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName("Chinese: Simplified");

however, following code is working
myFrame.parentStory.appliedLanguage = app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName("English: UK");
myFrame.texts[0].appliedLanguage = app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName("English: UK");

any help or insight is appreciated.

Hi @virender_CTS , if you get all the app languages is it listed? This gets names and ids

var lang = app.languagesWithVendors;
var s = ""
for (var i = 0; i < lang.length; i++){
    s+= lang[i].name + "  ID: " + lang[i].id + "\r"
};   
alert(s)
