Office 2016 Mac Change Language

Adding Language Packs for Office. The first thing you’ll want to do is add a language accessory pack for the language you wish to use. These language packs are completely free and are available for 32-bit or 64-bit architecture. Once on Office’s language accessory pack page, select the version of Office you are currently using. On the Modify User Settings page, expand the tree to Microsoft Office 2016 Language Preferences. Open the folder that you want in the navigation pane. Open (double-click) the setting in the details pane, choose Enable, and then specify a value. Save the setup customization file in the Updates folder at the root of the network installation point.

Summary: Find language identifier and OptionState ID values for identifying and customizing Office 2016 language and proofing tools installations.

Use the values in the Language Identifier and OptionState ID tables to configure setup for Office 2016 or for Office proofing tools, or to identify currently installed languages.

This is a reference article. The values provided in the tables are necessary for completing procedures that are described in the following articles:

Important

This article describes methods of deploying and managing language packs for versions of Office 2016 that use the Windows Installer (MSI) installation technology, which are available for enterprises through volume licensing. If you have an Office subscription and you're deploying Microsoft 365 Apps, which uses the Click-to-Run installation technology, see Overview of deploying languages for Microsoft 365 Apps.

Language identifiers

Office 2016 is available in many languages. In an international setting, you can deploy multiple language versions of Office 2016 in a single installation process. Setup combines a language-neutral core product with one or more language-specific packages to create a complete product.

On the source media, language-specific packages are organized into separate folders. Each folder name has a language tag appended to it, in the form ll-cc. That tag identifies the language and culture. For example, U.S. English language folders are identified by the folder name extension en-us. The language tags help you determine the folders that you have to copy to the network installation point.

The language folders that are included in a fully localized version of an Office 2016 product are the same as the language folders that are included in the Microsoft Office 2016 Language Pack for a specific language. For example, the same Outlook.ar-sa folder is used in the Arabic language version of Office 2016, the Arabic language version of Outlook 2016, and the Office 2016 Language Pack - Arabic.

Note

Language tags are also referred to and used as 'language IDs' for some procedures.

Office 2016 offers localized versions in all the languages that are listed in the following table. Folders for the language-specific components are identified by the language tag that is shown in the table. The Windows operating system uses locale identifiers (LCIDs) to identify languages in the Windows registry.

In addition to the fully localized languages listed here, Office 2016 provides Language Interface Packs (LIPs), which contain a subset of language-specific components and are designed to be installed together with a logical parent language. Elements that are not localized in the LIP language appear in the parent language. For more information about LIPs, see Language Interface Packs.

Suppose that Office 2016 Pro Plus (MS ActionPack, MSDN subscription etc.) is installed on your PC but you still need to add some language support. In my case, I need to add the Russian proof tools to the English Office that includes already the French language support but doesn't contain any Cyrillic spell checking.

The recommended way is to download the language pack and install it. However, it doesn't work for me, the error 30182-4 is occurred. Unfortunately, none of proposed workarounds don't work for me (repair, full reinstall).

The solution is to download a language-specific Office ISO (Russian in my case) available for all MS subscribers and install it over existing English Office. Then go to 'Office Language Preferences', add required tools and set options.
