I don't understand what you mean by that. What benefit would that be? What do you expect it to do? A textbox doesn't have a built in spelling checker, so I don't see what it matters. You can type in what ever language you like.

I don't want a spelling checker. I just need that when focusing the textbox the language will be changed to a specific language so that the textbox will contain character just of the german language for example. Clint

Then you are going to have to define what characters are in the German language and exclude anything else yourself. There is no built in functionality for this. In order to get this right you would have to conduct quite an intence linguistic study into the languages that you support. For example, some languages contain a lot of loan words. So, while in English accented characters are not used, they are used in some lone words such as fiancée or résumé. Would you block accented characters while set to English.
