It looks like the index 0 will be the current in use one: http://madskristensen.net/post/get-language-and-country-from-a-browser-in-aspnet[^]

Thank you for your interest.But but index[0] of the language array doest retun current language. My default language Turkis but as show in your article string[] languages = HttpContext.Current.Request.UserLanguages;
returns :
User Language 0: en-US
User Language 1: en;q=0.8
User Language 2: cs;q=0.6
User Language 3: tr;q=0.4
User Language 4: af;q=0.2
User Language 5: hu;q=0.2
(I've added other languages for try)
