To change the system language I had to rely on a "how to":
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/17528/change-the-user-interface-language-in-ubuntu/
The bits I was confused with were:
1. Once I had installed the desired language I expected its color to change
from grey to black.
I also semi expected it to jump up to the top of the list for use as a
system language.
2. It was not obvious to me that I had to click on the greyed-out language and
drag it up the list.
Because it was grey I thought it was not available.
However it was obvious to me that I could rearrange the black colored
languages.
