I agree - another option is to use small icons that are flags of the nations 
associated with the destiny language - English uses UK/US flag (I've even 
seen this as a combined flag), German the German flag, French the French 
flag, etc. Most web users associate these flags with the correct language 
even if the linking text is in another language or they are from another 
country like Australia where the predominant language is English or 
French-Canadian use the French flag.
