ok... First off, Im going to show you a few options you have later on when you get into other types of coding, so you can avoid if logic loops, it'll help reduce load on the server (its only a minute bit but still  )
you can do the same thing with a case statement:
PHP Code:
switch ($type){
case 1:{
$type2 = "de";
break;
}
case 2:{
$type2 = "cs";
break;
}
case 3:{
$type2 = "as";
break;
}
case 4:{
$type2 = "ka";
break;
}
case 5:{
$type2 = "fy";
break;
}
case 6:{
$type2 = "dm";
break;
}
case 7:{
$type2 = "he";
break;
}
case 8:{
$type2 = "de";
break;
}
}
or.. if you want to go even more advanced, store everything into an array 
PHP Code:
$myvar = $_POST['language_number']; //This is where you would get the value
//of the languaged which should be passed, or similarly
//you could assign it automatically if you wanted..
//or you could just assign it to 1 like you did above.. whichever
$types = array(
1 => 'de',
2 => 'cs',
3 => 'as',
4 => 'ka',
5 => 'fy',
6 => 'dm',
7 => 'he',
8 => 'de',
9 => 'en'
); //I added english
//if you wanted to know what values you have stored
//in the array you can always do this:
print_r($types);
$type = $types[$myvar];
not saying you have to do this, but it's an option ... makes for a lot less typing, and I'm lazy.. hehe
