It all depends on your requirements. I am assuming you dont need to query multiple languages in a single query. In that case splitting them into multiple cores would be a better idea since you can tweak around that core without affecting the other cores & index. With multiple languages there will be some tweaking or the other involved due to stemming, spell check & other features (if you plan to use them).

There is also an option of multiple solr webapps within a servlet container. So that could be an option you can look at.

It all depends on the flexibility that you had with regards to downtime that you could take to fix any issues.
