	Have you tried something like print(request.headers) to see what is in there? – IanAuld May 25 '15 at 14:50 add a comment |

Check out Werkzeug's LanguageAccept data structure, or just try something like this to get a best match: supported_languages = ["en", "nl", "it"] lang = request.accept_languages.best_match(supported_languages) If you need more than that, then check out Flask-Babel.
