Setting a value based on a lookup table

Question

I'm struggling a little with a lookup table.

so I have a list. List has country and language columns

I also have an exception table that has country and language columns.

I am trying to say, If Country = Germany in my list and Country Germany is found in the lookup table, then Set the language to whatever the value is in the lookup table, else just use the values from the list if Country is not found in the exception table

%%[

Var  @excepcount, @exceplang, @count, @lang, @row, @rows, @country,@language, @rowcount

Set @count = AttributeValue("country")
Set  @lang = AttributeValue("language")





Set @rows = LookupRows("exceptions", "country", @count)
set @rowCount = rowcount(@rows)

if @rowCount > 0 then

set @row = row(@rows,1) 
set @exceplang = field(@row,"language")
set @excepcount = field(@row,"country")



else

Set @exceplang = AttributeValue("language")
Set @excepcount = AttributeValue("country")



endif
]%%

%%[

Var  @excepcount, @exceplang, @count, @lang, @row, @rows, @country, @language, @rowcount

Set @count = AttributeValue("country")
Set  @lang = AttributeValue("language")





Set @rows = LookupRows("exceptions", "language", @lang)
set @rowCount = rowcount(@rows)

if @rowCount > 0 then

set @row = row(@rows,1) 
set @exceplang = field(@row,"language")
set @excepcount = field(@row,"country")

else 

Set @exceplang = language
Set @excepcount = country
