how can i chane excel language from hindi to english

Hi vaishnavi verma

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

I understand this unpleasant situation regarding your Microsoft apps are displaying in Hindi instead of English. Here are some workarounds you can try to resolve this issue:

Change the Windows Display Language

The system language often influences Microsoft applications.

• Go to Start > Settings > Time & Language > Language & region.
• Under Preferred languages, click Add a language, search for English, select it (e.g., English (United States)), and install it. Ensure you install the language pack when prompted.
• Move English to the top of your preferred languages list. This sets it as the default for Windows interfaces and supported apps.
• Remove Hindi: If Hindi is listed and unnecessary, you can remove it to avoid conflicts.
• Restart your computer to apply changes fully.

Adjust Microsoft Office Language Settings

Office apps have their own language configurations.

• Open Office Language Preferences: Launch any Office app (e.g., Word), go to File > Options > Language.
• Set Display Language: Under Office display language, ensure English is listed. If not, select Install additional display languages to download and install English. Set it as Preferred.
• Set Authoring and Proofing Language: Under Office authoring languages and proofing, add English if missing and set it as Preferred. Ensure proofing tools (e.g., spelling/grammar checks) are installed.
• Apply Changes: Restart Office applications for the changes to take effect.

Hope this helps. Feel free to get back if you have other questions.
