List available language codes is a WordPress ability from TranslatePress — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →List available language codes
Read-onlyReturn the full catalog of locale codes TranslatePress recognizes, each with its English name.
Requires the TranslatePress plugin on WordPress 6.9+ (or the Abilities API feature plugin). All abilities require the current user to have the 'manage_options' capability.
What it does
This ability returns every language code and English name in TranslatePress's built-in locale catalog, regardless of whether that language is currently configured on the site. It takes no input parameters and is marked read-only in its Abilities API annotations. It's useful for discovering the exact locale code (e.g. fr_FR, de_DE) to pass to the add-language, remove-language, update-language, or set-default-language abilities.

Permission
The current user must have the 'manage_options' capability; otherwise the ability returns a 403 WP_Error.
