Default language is English. You can change with other languages or custumize it. Set json url parameter to Language method for other languages from CDN.

.Language("https://cdn.datatables.net/plug-ins/1.10.20/i18n/Turkish.json")

Or add json file local and customize it. Reference:

.Language(Url.Content("/Scripts/Turkish.json"))

Json example is below:

{
    "sEmptyTable":     "No data available in table",
    "sInfo":           "Showing _START_ to _END_ of _TOTAL_ entries",
    "sInfoEmpty":      "Showing 0 to 0 of 0 entries",
    "sInfoFiltered":   "(filtered from _MAX_ total entries)",
    "sInfoPostFix":    "",
    "sInfoThousands":  ",",
    "sLengthMenu":     "Show _MENU_ entries",
    "sLoadingRecords": "Loading...",
    "sProcessing":     "Processing...",
    "sSearch":         "Search:",
    "sZeroRecords":    "No matching records found",
    "oPaginate": {
        "sFirst":    "First",
        "sLast":     "Last",
        "sNext":     "Next",
        "sPrevious": "Previous"
    },
    "oAria": {
        "sSortAscending":  ": activate to sort column ascending",
        "sSortDescending": ": activate to sort column descending"
    }
}

Or, you can just change what you want with builder;

.Language(lang => lang.EmptyTable("No Data").Search("Search by: "))
