The invention relates to a method of identifying a language in which a text is composed in the form of a string of characters, and also to a method of controlling a speech reproduction unit and to a communication device. To be able to carry out language identification with little expenditure, it is provided according to the invention that a frequency distribution (h (x), h (x,y), h (x,y,z)) of letters in the text is ascertained, the ascertained frequency distribution (h (x), h (x,y), h (x,y,z)) is compared with corresponding frequency distributions (l (x), l (x,y), l (x,y,z)) of available languages, in order to ascertain similarity factors (s , S , s ) which indicate the similarity of the language of the text with the available languages, and the language for which the ascertained similarity factor (S , S , S ) is the greatest is established as the language of the text.
