Creating a PowerPoint presentation in a different language?
The instructions below will work for all recent versions of Microsoft PowerPoint.
This includes the version of PowerPoint included with aMicrosoft 365 subscription.
To do this, open your PowerPoint presentation and select any text you’ve inserted.
Next, press Review > Language > Set Proofing Language on the ribbon bar.
The text you’ve selected will now use this language to check for spelling and grammatical errors.
If you want to change back at any point, repeat these steps and select your usual language instead.
It also uses this language to set the default proofing language for any text you insert.
If you’re in a locale with multiple languages, however, you may want to switch between them.
Likewise, you may want to change your interface language to match.
To start, open PowerPoint and select File > Options.
In the “PowerPoint Options” window, select “Language” on the left.
This will determine the language used for menus and buttons.
Microsoft Office will take a few minutes to download the new language pack.
If you’re prompted to, press “OK” to confirm and begin the installation.
When you’re ready, click “OK” to preserve your choice.
PowerPoint will exit and relaunch to display the new language.
