## Overview

A language selection form component that displays available languages as radio buttons. Enables users to switch between different language options on the store. Only displays when multiple languages are configured and language selection is enabled in theme settings.

## Common use cases

* Ensure proper translations are set up for all supported languages
* Consider testing keyboard navigation and screen reader compatibility
* Review language-specific layout considerations for longer language names
* Display language selection in headers, footers, or navigation menus

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.brickspacelab.com/slab/content/blocks/utility/language-picker.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
