Hi,
The Language indicator appears on the status bar only when at least one of the following is true:
- Language support for more than one language is installed.
For example, if you have support for both English (U.S.) and English (U.K.) installed.
-or- - Keyboard drivers for more than one language are installed.
You can follow the steps here to turn on the language indicator on the status bar:

Note: The article is for Word 2000. The steps in Word 2007 and Word 2010 are similar.
If you have turned it on,
try to exit Word, remove a language from control panel > language, start Word, exit, and then add it back from control panel > language again.
Best Regards,
Sally Tang
