Returns the language ID as an integer.

:typoscript:`siteLanguage("locale")`
Returns the current locale as a string, for example `en-GB` or `de-DE`.
Returns the current locale as :php:`\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Localization\Locale`.
You can call all public methods of the object, for example
:typoscript:`siteLanguage("locale").getName()` returns `en-GB` or `de-DE`.

**Note**: In TYPO3 v12 there was an unintentional breaking change,
whereby an object and not a string is returned.
A future TYPO3 release may address implementing a shortcut for this.

:typoscript:`siteLanguage("base")`
Returns the configured base URL as a string.
