in vbs you could build your own cross reference

aiBokmalNorwegian = 8
aiBrazillianPortuguese = 11
aiBulgarian = 20
aiCanadianFrench = 3
aiCatalan = 17
aiChinese = 29
aiCzech = 22
aiDanish = 16
aiDutch = 15
aiDutch2005Reform = 43
aiEnglish = 0
aiFinnish = 1
aiGerman2006Reform = 42
aiGreek = 25
aiHungarian = 28
aiIcelandic = 27
aiItalian = 7
aiJapanese = 30
aiNynorskNorwegian = 9
aiOldGerman = 5
aiPolish = 23
aiRomanian = 24
aiRussian = 18
aiSpanish = 12
aiSerbian = 21
aiStandardFrench = 2
aiStandardGerman = 4
aiStandardPortuguese = 10
aiSwedish = 13
aiSwissGerman = 6
aiSwissGerman2006Reform = 44
aiTurkish = 26
aiUKEnglish = 14
aiUkranian = 19

or use javascript within vbs

Illustrator.DoJavaScript("app.activeDocument.textFrames[0].characters[0].characterAttributes.language")

it returns

LanguageType.ENGLISH

How can get all LanguageType?

Ex: Exist LanguageType=39, but in your list have not.

[CarlosCanto]

I copied that list from the pdf documentation.

you can use the Object Browser in Excel vba to find all illustrator objects

39 = aiArabic

you can also use the OMV in the ESTK
