Hi

for my Emacs, to be able to write in Czech language a had to set .emacs :

(custom-set-variables
'(current-language-environment "czech")
'(default-input-method "czech")
)                                                                                                                          


(set-language-environment "czech")
(set-input-method "czech-qwerty")
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)


and this are my locale:

LANG=cs_CZ.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_PAPER="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="cs_CZ.UTF-8"


try it for your language, good luck

PS: i only have a problem when copying czech text to emacs. But i rather 
export text to file.txt and then open directly in emacs :o)
