Changing Excel Language: A Comprehensive Guide for Mac Users

Wish Excel spoke your language? We're here to guide you through changing Excel's language settings on a Mac. Let's dive right in.

1. Get Started with Excel

First, launch your Excel application. This is where our language-changing journey begins.

2. Venture into Excel's Preferences

Next, look for 'Excel' in the toolbar at the top of your screen. Click on it and then select 'Preferences'. You've just entered the customization hub of Excel.

3. Spot the Language Settings

In the Preferences window, locate the 'Language and Region' option. This is your stop for changing Excel's language.

4. Pick Your Language

Under 'Preferred languages', click the '+' button to add a new language from the dropdown list. Remember, Excel uses the languages in the order they appear in this list.

If your language isn't listed, you might need to add it to your Mac's system preferences first. You can learn how to do that in Apple's guide on language settings.

5. Make Your Changes Stick

Once you've chosen your language, it's time to close the Preferences window and restart Excel. Your selected language should now be in action.
