.htaccess - create a language dir

Question

For SEO friendly urls i'm using this expression:

RewriteRule ^([0-9]+).([^/]+)$ index.php?id=$1&titel=$2

The url is domain.com/55-page-title and it works perfect.

Now i have to determine different languages and my url should look like domain.com/de/55-seitentitel. I've no idea how to rewrite regular expression in .htaccess file.

RewriteRule ^([0-9]+).([^/]+)$ index.php?lan=$1&id=$2&titel=$3

What could I insert behind '^'? thanks a lot!

Try this:

RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/([0-9]+).([^/]+)$ index.php?lan=$1&id=$2&titel=$3
