Hi @Kri 

gs.getSession().getLanguage() is correct and will give you the language opted by  Logged in user

The issue here is you are trying to match it to English which is incorrect. The reason being servicenow stores language preference in terms of language code. 

So for English, language code is en

Similarly you can find the code for other languages in below link
