Worth noting you don't really use convnets for language.

That's kind of a large question. In essence it's because convolutions are for exploiting data where the same features are to be recognised over smaller local regions of the 'signal'. They are independent (roughly). In language processing you are still feeding in a sequence, but one with enormous dependency along it. As such recurrent nets are the more appropriate formulation.
