Its popular Chrome browser comes baked in with a plentitude of different languages that cater to near-about every region of the world. Be it the famous German and Spanish or even Igbo and Lao, you name it, and Chrome has it in its arsenal.

Change Chrome Display Language
Google Chrome supports multiple languages and allows you to select the preferred display language for options, menus, notifications, etc. The option to change the chrome language is available under Languages settings.
Here are steps to change the default display language in the Google Chrome browser:

for options and menu. - Select Settings from the menu that appears.
- Scroll to the bottom and click to expand the Advanced section.
- Scroll to the Languages section and click on the Language to expand the menu.

Once the browser restarts, it will adopt the new language throughout its user interface.
Chrome also allows setting the language preference using the Move up and Move to the top command for newly added languages. The language at the top gets the first preference and will be set as default.
We can also enable the checkbox for Offer to translate pages in this language option if the auto-translate feature is required.
Bottom Line: Chrome Language Settings
These were the steps to change Google Chrome’s display language. Every Chrome option, menu, feature, and setting will respect the newly assigned language.
Moreover, you could add more than one foreign language and switch between them as and when required.
