# Change your X (Twitter) display language

Automatically change your X (Twitter) display language on x.com. Change the display language for the signed-in X (Twitter) account, under Settings > Accessibility, display, and languages > Languages. Takes an X locale code (e.g. fr, de, en, it, es, en-gb, zh-cn) and applies it immediately — the account's interface language changes account-wide until switched again. This only affects X's own UI text (menus, buttons), not the language of tweets in your timeline.
