Plus the fact that the Calibre tag browser has a built-in option to show you a list of languages, so it's very easy to find and correct books whose language setting is wrong. If you find that you have five books whose language field is set to Arabic, for example, click on the "Arabic" heading under language, then "Ctrl+A" to select all the books, "Edit Metadata in Bulk", set the language field to English, and click "OK". Done.
