I think he was asking about the run-time langauge and not 'speaking language'. If that's the case, OP can get the current culture and language from the thread of execution. That would work for local applications. If the string is remoted from another appdomain, you can find the executing thread as well.

There is nothing standard in C#, .NET, Win32, whatever.
And there is no 100% reliable method to do that.
In what language is "chat"? Is is English, or French (cat)?
The longer the text, the better the chances, but nothing can be 100%
reliable.
But there are some decent statistical methods.
Here are some links (or Google for language identification algorithm):
