Please choose a language to use
Select your preferred language, by first expanding the list for your
continent. Mageia will use this selection during
the installation and for your installed system.
If it is likely that you will require several languages installed on your
system, for yourself or other users, then you should use the
Multiple languages button to add them now. It will be
difficult to add extra language support after installation.
Even if you choose more than one language, you must first choose one of them
as your preferred language in the first language screen. It will also be
marked as chosen in the multiple languages screen .
If your keyboard language is not the same as your preferred language, then
it is advisable to install the language of your keyboard as well.
Mageia uses UTF-8 (Unicode) support by default. This may be disabled in the
"multiple languages" screen if you know that it is inappropriate for your
language. Disabling UTF-8 applies to all installed languages.
You can change the language of your system after installation in the Mageia
Control Center -> System -> Manage localization for your system.
