Default How to change the default language in office

My girlfriend installed Office onto our computer and somehow she installed it in Italian. Does anyone know how I can change the default language for office on Mac OS?

Hi
Please see extract from Office Support page:
Set the default editing language in Office 2010
  1. Open a Microsoft Office program, such as Word.
  2. Click the File tab.
  3. Click Word Options.
  4. Click Language.
  5. In the Set the Office Language Preferences dialog box, under Choose Editing Languages, select the editing language that you want to use, click the name of the language that you want to be the default language, click Set as Default.
  6. After you change the default editing language, you need to close all your Office 2010 programs, and then open them again for the change to take effect.
Notes
  • If for some reason, your default display or Help language is not available, Microsoft Office uses the next language in the list that is available.
  • If the language that you want is not listed, you might need to add more language services by clicking Add additional Editing Languages.
Good luck.

Is this the same for 2011? I don't have "word options" - plus it's all in Italian. However, I've translated and it's not there.

Hi
There is no 2011 version of Office that I am aware of.
Unfortunately I can only other advice I can offer is that you need to fully re-load the application and select the appropriate language.
Sorry I cant help any further than that.
Good luck.

Hi, Watso, did you get this problem solved? I have the same issue...

(sorry, didn't know how to contact you directly so I 'friended' you - disregard that...)

Anybody else have input, for the 2011 Mac version?

Default Change Language office 2010 Home and student

I got Office 2010 Home and Student as a gift from USA.
All program menus are now in English.
Is there a possibility to change the menu language??

I think not but perhaps someone has an idea!

I Downloaded an Dutch version of Office Home and Student and at installation I gave the productkey of the english version wich was accepted bij the program as a valid key.
So I think my problem is solved.
