The language options are in the Set the Office Language Preferences section of the Office Options dialog box, which you can access by going to File > Options > Language. The display and authoring languages can be set independently. For example, you could have everything match the language of your operating system, or you could use a combination of languages for your operating system, authoring, and Office UI display.
You can add a display language or an authoring language. A display language determines the language Office uses in the UI - ribbon, buttons, dialog boxes, etc. An authoring language influences text direction and layout for vertical, right-to-left, and mixed text. Authoring languages also include proofing tools such as dictionaries for spelling and grammar checking. (The preferred authoring language appears at the top of the list in bold. You can change this by choosing the language you want and selecting Set as Preferred.)
If Proofing available appears next to the language name, you can obtain a language pack with proofing tools for your language. If Proofing not available is next to the language name, then proofing tools are not available for that language. If Proofing installed appears next to the language name, you're all set.
The preferred language appears in bold at the top of each language list. The order of the languages in the list is the order in which languages are used by Office. For example, if your display language order is Spanish , German, and Japanese, and the Spanish language resources are removed from your computer, German becomes your preferred display language.
The language options are in the Set the Office Language Preferences dialog box, which you can access by going to File > Options > Language. The display and help languages can be set independently. For example, you could have everything match the language of your operating system, or you could use a combination of languages for your operating system, editing, display, and Help.
You can add a language to Office programs by adding an editing language. An editing language consists of the type direction and proofing tools for that language. The proofing tools include language-specific features, such as dictionaries for spelling and grammar checking. (The default editing language appears at the top of the list in bold. You can change this by choosing the language you want and selecting Set as Default.)
In the Set the Office Language Preferences dialog box, under Choose Editing Languages, choose the editing language that you want to add from the Add additional editing languages list, and then select Add.
Close the Add Languages dialog box in Windows settings. In the Office dialog box, your language should display as Enabled under Keyboard Layout in the Choose Editing Languages section.
The default language appears in bold at the top of the list. The order of the languages in the display and Help lists is the order in which languages are used by Office. For example, if your display language order is Spanish , German, and Japanese, and the Spanish language tools are removed from your computer, German becomes your default display language.
If you use multiple languages and have customized Office so that it fits the way that you want to work, you can review all of the Office programs to see which language is the default display language for each.
ScreenTips are small pop-up windows that provide brief, context-sensitive help when you rest the pointer on a display element, such as a button, tab, dialog box control, or menu. Setting the ScreenTip language in one Office program sets it for all of the Office programs that you have installed.
If the language that you want is not listed, you might need to add more language services. Select How do I get more ScreenTip languages from Office.com, and then follow the download and installation instructions.
Language packs add additional display, help, and proofing tools to Microsoft 365. You can install additional language accessory packs after installing Microsoft 365. If a language accessory pack is described as having partial localization, some parts of Microsoft 365 may still display in the language of your copy of Microsoft 365.
If you're an administrator who has deployed a volume licensed version of Office 2016 to your users, you can download an ISO image of the language packs, language interface packs, and proofing tools from the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC).
Select the version of Microsoft 365 you're using from the tabs below, then select the language desired from the drop-down list. Then choose the appropriate architecture (32-bit or 64-bit) from the download links provided. If you're not sure what you're using, see What version am I using?
நறவதலக்க பறக தகப்ப எப்பட கட்டமப்பத என்பதப் பற்ற படக்கவம்.
If the language accessory pack includes proofing tools for that language, its status appears as Proofing installed. If the status is Proofing available, select the link to install the proofing tools.
You can change the default language for all your Microsoft 365 applications in the Set the Office Language Preferences dialog. For more information, see Add a language or set language preferences in Office.
Due to compatibility issues I had to ditch openoffice and libreoffice for Microsoft Office. I installed it using wine and everything works fine so far. The one thing I am missing, though is the Swiss German proofing tool, which is not part of the standard installation.
I downloaded it from the Microsoft website and got a .exe file. When I execute it I get the error The expected version of the product was not found on the system. I checked the installed version of Microsoft Office, it's 2010, also the proofing tool I downloaded is the service pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2010.
Can anyone help me on this? All the answers I found online were about uninstalling Microsoft Office, adding the files from the service pack to the mounted .iso archive, and adding a few lines to some .xml files, but these require an archive, whereas I could only find .exe files to download.
Now everytime I want to write an e-mail or Word document in German, it says that's everything is wrong. So I mark everything and change the proofing language to German (yes I unchecked the automatic detection). I type a single character and it switches back to "English". I even tried setting it as default language. Actually when I choose "German (Germany)" and type anything it switches to "English (Germany)". Even if I delete something, it never turns back. Like it's truly temporary.
After opening a new e-mail window, place the cursor in the text field and make sure to select the correct typing language by pressing Alt+Shift or using the language selection menu near the clock in the Windows taskbar. Or by pressing Review > Language > Set Proofing Language... (without selecting any text). Then start typing and it should work.
This article covers the options for deploying languages for Microsoft 365 Apps, including what method to use, where to deploy languages from, how to deploy proofing tools, and best practices. We recommend using this article as part of planning your Office deployment.
You can't use language resources for Windows Installer (MSI) versions of Office with Microsoft 365 Apps, which uses Click-to-Run. For example, you can't use language packs downloaded from the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC) with Microsoft 365 Apps.
In general, you deploy languages for Microsoft 365 Apps with the same process and tools that you use to deploy Office itself. You can deploy multiple languages by including those languages directly in the Office packages, or you can deploy languages as a separate package, after Office is already installed. The steps in this article assume that you're deploying with Configuration Manager or the Office Deployment Tool, and that you use the Office Customization Tool (OCT) to create the configuration files for your deployment. If a setting isn't yet available in the OCT, steps are given for creating the configuration file in a text editor.
If your organization allows it, users can install Microsoft 365 Apps languages directly from the Office 365 portal. When users install Office from the Software page, they select a language from the Language drop-down box. If a user needs another language, they can just rerun the process for each required language. The setup adds the selected language to the user's device.
To deploy Microsoft 365 Apps in multiple languages, you need to include the other languages in the Office packages you create. To do so, select the languages you want to deploy in the Language section when creating the configuration file in the Office Customization Tool.
If you deploy Office from a local source on your network, you must download your languages to that source, in the same way that you download the Office package. For more information, see Download the installation files for Microsoft 365 Apps. When deploying from a local source, we recommend that you use the Office Content Delivery Network (CDN) as a backup source for language packs.
