The Debian package system has language "tasks" which can be installed
like packages. You can search your preferred languages with
apt search task-LANGUAGE
where LANGUAGE is the name of the language (like task-finnish).
Graphical package manager programs can probably browse available tasks
too. I would recommend installing such tasks.
Also, some programs have their language-specific files in a separate
package: the name ends with -l10n- and a two-letter language code.
