Determiners

Why do we need a determiner for this sentence, please?

I use English language.


Although it's said that a the is required, it sounds that the word English itself determines/specifies which language we are talking about and we don't need that article.

You need a determiner because "language" is a singular countable noun. "English" is an adjective in that sentence.
