Chapter 9. Changing Your iphone's Language

By default, every iPhone uses a language based on where you bought it. So, for example, if you bought your iPhone in the United States, the default language is English; if you bought your iPhone in France, the default language is French.

If you move to another country, or you just like practicing your language skills by using another language, you can make all icons and menus appear in the language of your choice. To complete the language experience, you can also change the keyboard settings to another language. That way, as you type, your iPhone will suggest words in that particular language.

Project goal: Learn to change the default language used for typing and displaying icons and buttons.
