We are dealing with a lot of translation and localisation work at the moment and unfortunately there does not seem to be a definitive list of which languages (and their codes) are supported by SharePoint.

So, we reverse engineered the dropdown menu on the SP1 Language pack download page, resulting in the following table.

Language Name

Culture Name

Locale ID

Arabic

ar-sa

1025

Bulgarian

bg-bg

1026

Catalan

ca-es

1027

Chinese (Simplified)

zh-cn

2052

Chinese (Traditional, Taiwan)

zh-tw

1028

Croatian

hr-hr

1050

Czech

cs-cz

1029

Danish

da-dk

1030

Dutch

1043

English

en-us

1033

Estonian

The Locale ID is important for SharePoint Solutions that deploy to the 12/Template/<locale id> folder, for example custom workflow activity .ACTIONS files.

The culture name is used in the names of resource files.
