Primarily you should config your page. e.g.

# Konfiguration Default English
config {
   sys_language_uid = 0
   language         = en
   locale_all       = en_GB.utf8
   htmlTag_langKey  = en
}

# Konfiguration English
[globalVar = GP:L = 0]
config {
   sys_language_uid = 0
   language         = en
   locale_all       = en_GB.utf8
   htmlTag_langKey  = en
}
[global]

# Konfiguration Deutsch
[globalVar = GP:L = 9]
config {
   sys_language_uid  = 9
   language          = de
   locale_all        = de_DE.utf8
   htmlTag_langKey   = de
}
[global]

config {
   sys_language_mode = content_fallback ; 0,9
   sys_language_overlay = 1
   uniqueLinkVars = 1
   linkVars = L(0|9)
}

And you have to create a language select menu (HMENU special language)

everything you need to put in the right values in code above is the TSref.

I don'n know the way, commerce interacts with TYPO3 language settings. Try to find a manual.
