I don't know how to map the locale/language to a character set (possibly via
a coding system), but locale-language-names looks promising.
Once that's done, here's a start:
(map-charset-chars (lambda (range arg)
(let ((char (car range)))
(while (<= char (cdr range))
(when (string-match "[[:alpha:]]"
(char-to-string char))
(print (char-to-string char)))
(setq char (1+ char)))))
character-set) ; e.g. iso-8859-1
