Hi John,

Language code and hreflang are two different things.

Language code is used in the database and in URLs for people using repertories - for example /en or /it - but it's not your case here.
Hreflang is the important one which helps Google to understand the different languages for the same piece of content.

<link rel="alternate" hreflang="en-gb" href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" />
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="ga" href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" />
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="it" href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" />
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="ar" href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" />
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" />
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="x-default" href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" />

You can see that "en" is used for your .us domain.
