I discovered this today when I was attempting to reset my search engine text size -

1. Get the "Google" search engine page up and click on "Preferences" (to the right hand side of the text field),
2. Find "Interface Language" and click on the drop-down window icon, "English" will currently be being displayed,
3. Scroll up one language, I'm not going to tell you what it is as that'll take away the surprise and click on it and "Save Preferences" - it's different I promise you.

To return to "English" is exactly the same process, except you scroll back to "English".

And another "why!" - type in Google backwards into the search field and click.

There are others in there if you go looking Dave. Wink

I've just discovered Klingon - but avoid it unless you know Klingon for "English"! Confused

yeah I thought I'd locked myself out by picking some unusual script! however there is an English button to the right side of the google homepage, near the search box, so that gets you out of trouble Very Happy

Hi

Google sketch is worth a look, but it isn't as good as autocad!

Cheers
