If you don't see any languages, you need to check the Recycle Bin and restore the deleted languages.

Check The Language Definition Config

Navigate to the App_Config folder wwwroot\[your site]\App_Config and look for the LanguageDefinitions.config. If it is missing, you will need to reinstall it.

Open up the config file, and search for your language id and region. If you can't find it, reinstall this file.

Restart CM Server

If the Sitecore items and the config file exist, the last thing to do is restart CM and try publishing again.
