You may find a quick list of the 23 official EU languages here:
http://europa.eu/abc/european_countries/languages/index_en.htm

For more info about the names, codes of the EU countries, including the 
candidates states, see:
http://publications.europa.eu/code/pdf/370000en.htm

The language codes are based on the ISO standard 639-2 
(Codes for the representation of names of languages-- Part 2.):

HTH, regards from Europe ;-)
