Probably you should include localization files:

http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery.Validate/1.7/localization/messages_es.js

http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery.Validate/1.7/localization/methods_de.js

In Germany one uses the same rules for numbers, so you can use methods_de.js or just include

jQuery.extend(jQuery.validator.methods, {
    number: function(value, element) {
        return this.optional(element) ||
               /^-?(?:\d+|\d{1,3}(?:\.\d{3})+)(?:,\d+)?$/.test(value);
    }
});

Here the list of files hosted by Microsoft CDN for the version of 1.6. The version 1.7 has the same files.
