The @ prefix is reserved for framework arguments (@package, @subpackage, 
@controller, @action & @format – see [1])

Try:

-
   name: 'language'
   uriPattern: '{locale}/{@package}/{@controller}(/{@action})'
   defaults:
     '@package':    'MyPackage'
     '@controller': 'Standard'
     '@action':     'index'
     '@format':     'html'

You forgot to make the locale available to the view.
This could be achieved like this:

/**
  * @var \TYPO3\FLOW3\I18n\Detector
  * @FLOW3\Inject
  */
protected $localeDetector;

/**
  * @var \TYPO3\FLOW3\I18n\Service
  * @FLOW3\Inject
  */
protected $l18nService;

/**
  * @var \TYPO3\Flow\I18n\Locale
  */
protected $locale;

public function initializeAction(){
	if ($this->request->hasArgument('locale')) {
		$this->locale = 
$this->localeDetector->detectLocaleFromLocaleTag($this->request->getArgument('locale'));
		if ($this->l18nService->getConfiguration()->getCurrentLocale() !== 
$this->locale) {
			$this->l18nService->getConfiguration()->setCurrentLocale($this->locale);
		}
	}
}

/**
  * @param \TYPO3\Flow\Mvc\View\ViewInterface $view
  * @return void
  */
protected function initializeView(\TYPO3\Flow\Mvc\View\ViewInterface 
$view) {
	$view->assign('locale', $this->locale);
}



In your templates you'll then have to specify the locale argument like this:

<f:link.action action="index" arguments="{locale: 
locale}">foo</f:link.action>


Or:

<f:link.action action="index" arguments="{locale: 'it'}">foo</f:link.action>

to set a different locale explicitly (note the single quotes around 
"it", they were missing in your code).
