# Internationalization

## The `lang` route parameter

All page paths starts with a language parameter, e.g. `/sv/utforska-scandic/wi-fi`.

### Get the language in a client component

We have a hook called `useLang` that directly returns the `lang` parameter from the path.

### Get the language in a server component

In order to not prop drill that all the way from a page we use React's `cache` in a way that resembles React`s context, but on the server side.

For this to work we must set the language with `setLang` on the topmost layout
