<p>Some translations have faults, and it would be a nice feature to be able to set the UI language.  Specifically, it would be nice to allow for the system-way to set languages (for MacOS, see)</p>
<p>There are methods reported to set env variable LANG, prior to launch from command line, but that method breaks stuff such as opening from the system, right-click and select Geany, and many more.</p>
<p>The suggestion is to :</p>
<ol>
<li>allow for a preference within Geany</li>
<li>alternatively, use the build-in system way (for macos :  <a href="https://beebom.com/how-customize-language-settings-specific-apps-macos-catalina/" rel="nofollow">https://beebom.com/how-customize-language-settings-specific-apps-macos-catalina/</a> , but I am sure the other systems have their own ways) -- this may not be as easy to find for people as 1), though</li>
</ol>
<p>I would prefer method 1)</p>
