# Feature: #90613 - Add language argument to page-related LinkViewHelpers and UriViewHelpers in Fluid

See [forge#90613](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/90613)

## Description

A new argument `language` is added to the following Fluid ViewHelpers:

-   `<f:link.typolink>`
-   `<f:link.page>`
-   `<f:uri.typolink>`
-   `<f:uri.page>`

They are responsible for linking to a page, and are using TypoLink functionality
under-the-hood.

### Examples

A Link to page with ID 13 but with language 3 - no matter what language the
current page is:

```html
<f:link.page pageUid="13" language="3">Go to french version of about us page</f:link.page>
```

Creating a language menu:

```html
<ul>
  <li>
    <f:link.typolink parameter="current" language="3">Current page in french</f:link.typolink>
  </li>
  <li>
    <f:link.typolink parameter="current" language="4">Current page in german</f:link.typolink>
  </li>
  <li>
    <f:link.typolink parameter="current" language="5">Current page in spanish</f:link.typolink>
  </li>
</ul>
```

## Impact

The new argument allows to force a language when linking to a specific page,
making it consistent with the TypoLink option added in site handling for TYPO3 v9:

[https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-typoscript/main/en-us/Functions/Typolink.html#language](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-typoscript/main/en-us/Functions/Typolink.html#language)

This Fluid option should be used instead of adding a `L` parameter to
`additionalParameters` argument to make linking to a specific language possible.
In general, using of the magic GET variable `L` is discouraged.
