if you want to get a valid language, even though you never set one, make sure to set the default language when you import the ngx-translate module

app.module.ts

...
@NgModule({
   imports: [
      BrowserModule,
      TranslateModule.forRoot({
         defaultLanguage: 'en'
      })
   ],
   bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
