Just like you visit maps.google.com.tw or maps.google.co.kr or maps.google.co.jp, you can see their own language shown on every country. Is there any property that I can use in Google Maps API to dynamically set google maps using specific language to display?

Like many other Google web applications, Google Maps uses JavaScript extensively. The site also uses JSON for data transfer rather than XML, for performance reasons.
The Google Maps APIs now support you in creating beautiful styled maps for your Android and iOS apps as well as your website using the same JSON style object.
Google Maps app for Android: Tap your profile picture in the top right, tap Settings > Navigation settings > Voice selection > a language. To also adjust the text language go to Settings > App language.
In Google Maps API v3, add "language" attribute to script tag. For example, the following will set map to display Russian in location names and navigation buttons:
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&language=ru-RU" type="text/javascript"></script> Result:
152
In Google Maps v3, you can use the "language" parameter:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&language=en"></script> Language codes list: https://developers.google.com/maps/faq#languagesupport
