厦门周边游 “闽南的西双版纳”—金光湖原始森林
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since October 2017.
The Navigator.languages read-only property
returns an array of strings representing the user's preferred
languages. The language is described using language tags according to
RFC 5646: Tags for Identifying Languages (also known as BCP 47). In the returned
array they are ordered by preference with the most preferred language first.
The value of navigator.language is the
first element of the returned array.
When its value changes, as the user's preferred languages are changed a
languagechange event is fired on the Window object.
The Accept-Language HTTP header in every HTTP request from the user's browser generally lists the same locales as the navigator.languages property, with decreasing q values (quality values). Some browsers (Chrome and Safari) add language-only fallback tags in Accept-Language—for example, en-US,en;q=0.9,zh-CN;q=0.8,zh;q=0.7 when navigator.languages is ["en-US", "zh-CN"]. For privacy purposes (reducing fingerprinting), both Accept-Language and navigator.languages may not include the full list of user preferences, such as in Safari (always) and Chrome's incognito mode, where only one language is listed.
Value
An array of strings.
Examples
Listing the contents of navigator.language and navigator.languages
navigator.language; // "en-US"
navigator.languages; // ["en-US", "zh-CN", "ja-JP"]
Using Intl constructors to do language-specific formatting, with fallback
The array of language identifiers contained in navigator.languages can be passed directly to the Intl constructors to implement preference-based fallback selection of locales, where the first entry in the list that matches a locale supported by Intl is used:
const date = new Date("2025-08-04");
const formattedDate = new Intl.DateTimeFormat(navigator.languages).format(date);
