Interesting, I wonder what the addional languages are?
#8480 is from 1996?   The Idea Book, from 1990, had flags denoting each
language.  I would have been unable to identify some  without that help.
The battery usage instructions probably don't have the flags.  That would
make the task of identifying the  languages much more difficult.

I can only identify 5 and read 2 of them.

Well, I can only read one, but I take a guess at the others.  ;)

Column one:
English, German, French

Column two:
Italian, Dutch, Spanish

Column three:
Danish, Finnish, Swedish?, unknown, unknown, Russian?, Turkish?, unknown

Column four:
Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, unknown, Hebrew?

The ones with question marks are wild guesses.  "unknown" means I can't even
make a guess.

I don't think the last one is Hebrew, unless A) my eyes are really going or B)
it's some weird font I'm unfamiliar with.

Judging by the "TH" next to it, and the fact that the other languages around it
are from the Far East, my stab in the dark would be Thai.
