Hasn't anyone notices that almost no modern website has a manual language selection mechanism these days? Why is this? Perhaps because they realized that web browsers report the user's preferred languages to the web server in the HTTP "Accept-Language" header, and therefore it is almost entirely unnecessary to have a way for users to manually select language.
