The demo site is an excellent resource and I personally am glad that it exists, However, I have experienced many instances where the language was changed to one I am not fluent in. I took the liberty of creating a cheat sheet (if you will), that "counts" the options:

1. On the Admin bar across the top, choose the second tab from the right. This will open the "Administer" dropdown menu.

2. Hover over the 4th option down. This Will expand another menu to the right, Select the first option.

3. in the first dropdown, find the language you are looking for and select it.

4. There are 2 buttons just above and to the left of this menu, click the leftmost button, and you should be set.

It is also possible to reset it from this link:
http://drupal.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm/admin/setting/localization?reset=1

Just click the link, and skip to step 3.

In the event that the demo site has been set to multilingual, and you can't find your language in the default language dropdown:

1. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and check the box beside the last option (return to single language), then select save.

2. go back to http://drupal.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm/admin/setting/localization?reset=1

3. in the first dropdown, find the language you are looking for and select it.

4. There are 2 buttons just above and to the left of this menu, click the leftmost button, and you should be set.

Hope this helps anyone who finds themselves in this position.

Cheers,
Jason

Thanks for that! it is very useful!

I do translate a lot of official company websites in to spanisch, france and portuguese and I am happy for every new translating issue, that makes it faster and more efficient. My last job was for a company who build designer iwc watches.
Indeed a very special and particular technique vocabulary.
