Apparently I misunderstood the use of the word 'language'...

You mean English, Spanish, Italian, and German - or the actual wording of
prompt itself?

For a language - set the 'language=en' or 'language=es' in the
sip.conf for
that user.  It is 'supposed' to be carried through.  Should be
something on
the wiki about it.

If you mean the wording or the prompts/IVR etc - well - that's why you
get
the 'big bucks'.  8-)
