I believe the Google maps language is derived from your device language and regions.

Absolutely, i'm from Brazil and my language is Portuguese, also, it never happened before.
Does anyone can help?
Abelardo, is this affecting desktop or mobile device? Preview or Website?
If the problem is preview has Windows recently updated and chaged the language/region settings somehow? If it's on a mobile, I am aware that on some phones Portugese Language for Brazil recently disappeared.
If website, can you provide the url?

Desktop mode, Website.
There's no URL yet, since i am buiding the site atm.
Abelardo, if you go to https://www.google.com/maps do you see French or Portugese?
If you preview on your mobile what language do you see on the maps?
I do not believe it is possible to parse the preferred language to google maps, this is handled by your choices in your operating system. If something has changed then I suspect you should be looking in your language and region settings for Windows and/or your mobile OS
You say this used to work? Do you have an old example online that behaves as you expect?
