Are questions related to specific natural languages too localized?

One of the reasons questions are closed as too localized is geography as stated e.g. [here](http://meta.superuser.com/questions/1585/what-does-too-localized-really-entail), even if the question is possibly relevant to all of China (population 1.3B) or all of India (1.2B), both of which have a greater population than all of North America and Europe *combined*.

Does this also apply to languages?

Are questions relating to languages *always acceptable*? Are they, as a function of a person's location, also *too localized*? Does it depend, i.e. we might tolerate questions about *English* (500M-1.8B speakers, and language of this site), but not *[Sanskrit](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanskrit)* (14k speakers)? How about Mandarin (800M)?

As a concrete example, in a comment to [this answer](http://superuser.com/questions/344109/mac-os-x-two-dictionaries-on-osx/344115#344115) I mentioned that asking for a Mac OS X dictionary module for a certain language might be considered *too localized* — more general issues with software recommendation aside. Am I wrong?
