Caveats

If the user has "Share language with objects" disabled then this function returns an empty string.
Users may prefer to see the client interface in a language that is not their native language, and some may prefer to use objects in the native language of the creator, or dislike low-quality translations. Consider providing a manual language override when it is appropriate.
New language/variant values may be added later. Scripts may need to be prepared for unexpected values.
