I see a mix of languages on my Microsoft Office Online Web site.
You can change the language of your Microsoft Office Online Web site, but the language of your installed Office program stays the same. Because of this, you may encounter scenarios where information in the installed Office program is in one language and information on the Office Online Web site is in another language.
To see content in a single language, go to the Office Worldwide page on the Office Online Web site, and select the language and locale setting that corresponds to the language of your installed program. You can always choose to browse content again later from any of the Office Online Web sites by going back to the Office Worldwide page.
I get results in different languages when I select items from the Help query results.

I changed settings on the Office Worldwide page, and now I can't find it.
On the Office Worldwide page on the Microsoft Office Online Web site, you may inadvertently select a site in a language with which you are unfamiliar. To return to your original language and locale setting, click the Office Worldwide link (signified in all languages by a globe) at the bottom of the Office Online Web site or on the navigation bar on the left side of the Office Online Web site.

Clicking this link always takes you to the Office Worldwide page. If there is a difference between your Internet browser's language settings and the language of the current Office Online Web site, the Office Worldwide page identifies all available sites in both languages to ensure that you can find your original site in the list.
