Within the application settings, look for the “Language” or “Language Preferences” tab. The exact location may vary slightly depending on the Office version you are using. Once found, click on it to proceed.
Step 3: Choose Editing Languages
In the Language Preferences tab, you will find a list of languages available for Office. Look for the section called “Choose Editing Languages” or similar wording. Here, you can add or remove languages according to your preference.
