MPE XL Native Language Programmer's Guide

Commands 

Commands or keywords that make NLS features available on request have
been added to certain subsystems.  (For example, entering LANGUAGE=FRENCH
within QUERY causes sorted character data of IMAGE types X and U to be
sorted, in its output reports, according to the French collating
sequence.  If the language command is not entered, QUERY performs as it
did before the introduction of NLS.) If these commands are not used, the
default language(s) used by subsystem utility programs can be influenced
by the values of the two NLS job control words, NLUSERLANG and
NLDATALANG.

Some general suggestions for designing applications incorporating NLS
features and specific strategies for using major programming languages
are included in appendix E.
