Hello Barbara,

Thanks for your tips regarding my language issue with Google.  Let me 
give you a little info about myself &I have a few more questions based 
on what you said here.

As well as having C-P, I'm also totally blind.  I use adaptive screen 
reading software with speech output.  Another words, everything you can 
see on your computer screen I can hear on my screen.

So with that in mind, can you please tell me when I'm at the top of the 
Google home page, using my down-arrow key, what words or buttons am I 
looking for?  Then, what links do I click on to change my default 
language back to English?

Thank you again for your help.


Gary
