# LanguageSettings

- [JSON representation](https://developers.google.com/workspace/gmail/api/reference/rest/v1/LanguageSettings#SCHEMA_REPRESENTATION)

Language settings for an account. These settings correspond to the ["Language settings"](https://support.google.com/mail/answer/17091) feature in the web interface.

| JSON representation |

| ``` { "displayLanguage": string } ``` |

| Fields ||
|---|---|
| `displayLanguage` | `string` The language to display Gmail in, formatted as an [RFC 3066 Language Tag](https://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/) (for example `en-GB`, `fr` or `ja` for British English, French, or Japanese respectively). The set of languages supported by Gmail evolves over time, so please refer to the "Language" dropdown in the [Gmail settings](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#settings/general) for all available options, as described in the [language settings help article](https://support.google.com/mail/answer/17091). For a table of sample values, see [Manage language settings](https://developers.google.com/workspace/gmail/api/guides/language-settings). Not all Gmail clients can display the same set of languages. In the case that a user's display language is not available for use on a particular client, said client automatically chooses to display in the closest supported variant (or a reasonable default). |
