  if (function_exists('i18n_get_lang')) {
    return i18n_get_lang();
  }
  if (function_exists('locale')) {
    $languages = locale_supported_languages();
    $languages = $languages['name'];
  }

    // Ensure the locale/language is correctly returned, even without locale.module.
    // Useful for e.g. XML/HTML 'lang' attributes.
    $languages = array(
      'en' => 'English',
    );
