Calling req.acceptsLanguages without argument(s) returns an array of languages from the HTTP Accept-Language header.
This is much easier than calling req.get('Accept-Language') because you do not need to parse the Accept-Language header string.

Thanks @dotnetCarpenter. It took me a while to follow the change, but seems clear now that I checked the test file from accepts (https://github.com/jshttp/accepts/blob/master/test/language.js#L12) following the expressjs code (https://github.com/expressjs/express/blob/2a00da2067b7017f769c9100205a2a5f267a884b/lib/request.js#L181).
This is a very useful change in the docs! 👍
