At first sorry for my English :).

LANGUAGE_CODE setting doesn’t work correctly.

When I configured LANGUAGE_CODE=”mn”, but default language code is “en”.

from django.utils.translation import get_language
print get_language()

>>> en

then I tried to configure LANGUAGES setting

LANGUAGES = (
(“mn”: “Mongolia”),
(“en”: “English”),
)

but still “en”

changed LANGUAGES setting

LANGUAGES = (
(“mn”: “Mongolia”),
(“en-us”: “English”),
)

now it is “mn”

but want above settings

LANGUAGE_CODE = “mn”
LANGUAGES = (
(“mn”: “Mongolia”),
(“en”: “English”),
)

It doesn’t work correctly. Is it BUG ? or something else?

I also tried creating “mn”, “en” locale.

Hope help me. Thanks.

    If you haven’t already, be sure to read this specific topic in the Django documentation:

    How Django discovers language preference
    https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/i18n/deployment/#how-django-discovers-language-preference

    We’re not using Django 1.3 yet, but we are using Django with multiple languages.

    The first item to check is to verify the Accept-Language HTTP header being sent by your browser. Use Fiddler or Charles Proxy or similar tool to verify. Sounds like your browser may be sending “en-us” as a language preference.
