English is Canvas' language default, but you can choose to view the Canvas interface in another language.

Note: You have the option to change the language preference for your courses. If one of your courses is set to a different language (most often for a foreign language course), the course language will override the language in your user settings.
 In the Language drop-down menu, choose your preferred language.
 
View Preferred Language View Canvas in your preferred language.
