Not <language>, but <dictioinary>.  If the dictionary is
`americanmed.hash', the personal dictionary for it will be
`.ispell_americanmed'.  The dictionary in use is the one specified by
the -d option from the shell command line, or by ispell-dictionary
variable or ispell-change-dictionary command from within Emacs.

The name of the default dictionary is displayed by

  ispell -vv | fgrep DEFHASH

Also, the .ispell_<dictionary> file is searched for both in the
current directory and in home directory (creating one in the latter if
none exists).

See the Ispell man page for all this info.
