About Oracle RDBMS error messages, they all have numeric error codes, so even if the message text is non-English, you can just Google the code.

Your comment "you can't change the language on the client, you must do it on the server (if you are allowed to do so)" doesn't appear to be true:

SQL> select * from fred;
select * from fred
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

SQL> alter session set nls_language = german;

Session altered.

SQL> select * from fred;
select * from fred
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: Tabelle oder View nicht vorhanden
