Key being the URL:

http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&language=ru-RU

and
language=ru-RU

Either use the URL above or the recommended angular approach by loading the google sdk async via below code:

'use strict';
angular.module("angular-google-maps-example", ['uiGmapgoogle-maps'])
.config(['uiGmapGoogleMapApiProvider', function (GoogleMapApi) {
  GoogleMapApi.configure({
    //key: 'your api key',
    //v: '3.20', //(defaults to 3.X)
    libraries: 'weather,geometry,visualization', //optional
    language:ru-RU //set whatever langs u want
  });
}])

Thank you for your replay . Just to be sure it is uiGmapGoogleMapApi and not uiGmapGoogleMapApiProvider right?

Depends on when you use it. That nuance is due to angular design. If you use it at the config level it is uiGmapGoogleMapApiProvider otherwise it is uiGmapGoogleMapApi. This is one of the sucks of angular.

the language is defined in the .config of your angular module, which is run only once.

Is there a way to change the language dynamically? suppose the map is already loaded in "EN", then I want to change it in 'FR'?

Its a provider so you should be able to use it at many phases. https://gist.github.com/demisx/9605099

lastly it uses a factory internally which you have access to https://github.com/angular-ui/angular-google-maps/blob/master/src/coffee/providers/map-loader.coffee#L3

I think your main issue is you will have the google maps api loaded twice. I think the scripId stuff needs to be fixed. Fixed as to not use uuid if an elementId is passed into the options.script.id . Please feel free to make the mods and PR.
