I'm not sure the English translation here. But I know you can change the language, easy in, say, LibreOffice go through the Tools menu

Hi there. I attempted to translate the posts, since the forum still operates in English only, this could change.

In lightdm-gtk-greeter, the language locale appears in the top-right, like this:

Languages can be added or removed from System → Preferences → Personal → Language Support:

When languages are installed to the system, they must be applied system wide:

Hi @Wolfdietrich_Wohinz,

the language tool in Ubuntu 16.04 is defective at the moment so please wait a short while until it is updated and fixed!.

I use German and English on a daily basis myself and I have problems with the tool myself, in the meantime; you can take a look at the language guide but as far as I am aware, there is no flag setting for Ubuntu or Ubuntu Mate!, take a look in Dconf Editor for a setting that states “Show flags” or something like that but I cannot find it !. :confused:
