When you type in a different language often enough, it's helpful to have easy access to a keyboard that displays the symbols and letters necessary to communicate in that language. With an international keyboard setting enacted, you can change between different languages by tapping the globe icon near your keyboard's space bar. At some point though, you may no longer have the need for that keyboard. A simple setting change can help you "delete" that language, so it's not available when you press that globe icon. Another thing you might need to do: change the language of the interface, when it's set in a language that doesn't allow you to read the keys on your iPhone.

The languages that appear in the International menu are built into the operating system, and thus you can't "delete" them entirely.
