Hello!

One way is to start on command line using "LANG=en gimp" - that should work with MAC too. That should set the environment variable LANG to "en"

Hi Karl F.

on Mac you need to change your systems-language. It's not possible to change the language only for gimp (like on windows)

Thanks for helping, but i dont find, the( lang " en " )

 In Edit - Adjustments- Enviroment I try to type ( Lang ) and/or ( en ) but nothing happen

As Martin said, please read the linked documentation. That's not a setting in the preferences but how you can call GIMP from the command line on unix like systems.

...but it should be. How to change GIMP's display language is one of the most common questions I'm getting lately.

The instructions at the above link do NOT help -- one cannot find "Edit->Preferences->etc..." in a foreign script one cannot read.

I ran this from the command line (Terminal) and it worked:

LANG="en" ; export LANG ; /Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/MacOS/Gimp

Best wishes

FWIW, the correct terminal command on OS X should be (bash shell):

LC_ALL=en_US open -a Gimp.app

@Maurizio: Thanks for the correction.

Oddly enough, when I open Gimp with the program icon, it still defaults to Greek - even when I disable all non-English languages in the OS. I suppose I should launch it from a bash script instead specifying the locale as en_US ...

On Mac OS X the preferences are not in the Edit menu, but in the GIMP menu (the left-most menu item, right next to the Apple symbol in the global menu bar). It's the same menu where you can quit GIMP.

Kind regards,

Sven
