Hi Alan, the original intention is that the GET parameter takes precedence over the http header.

Hello Markus,
Thanks for the great work on the API.
I think there may be problems because of the two ways of specifying the language.
Which takes priority if both the HTTP header and the parameter are specified?
If the HHTP header is not specified, then according to the HTTP spec:
"A request without any Accept-Language header field implies that the user agent will accept any language in response."
That doesn't seem consistent with the ability to specify the language as a parameter.
