How about picking up one line from unidentified text object (UTO) and
search the words by Google?
Result pages include each URL. URLs contain each country top level
domain. :-)
The another serious approach is .. calculate character code
distribution in each language.
Character code distribution and pick up characteristic character (ex:
Umlaut) may help you to specify which language the text is.

the International preferences ?
The reference for "word" indicates:
A continuous series of characters, with word elements parsed
according to the word-break rules set in the International
preference pane.
Because the rules for parsing words are thus under user control,
your scripts should not count on a deterministic text parsing of
words.
But what if I need to parse a multilingual text, or a foreign text
in a different environment, for ex, Japanese in a French
"International" setting ?
Are there programatic ways to accomplish that ?
