My Yahoo email started opening up in Chinese and if I go to the Yahoo main page it is also in Chinese but if i open Yahoo main page first it is in English.

Hi,

Go to your account settings from this page. Next, select Preferences and in "Language", set English and your desired region.

Went into preferences. Selected English-United States but still did not correct the chinese yahoo. What do I click to accept the language? did not see anything to click "OK". Its like I'm stuck there. Nothing I try works.

Once you have selected "English - United States", it will automatically be taken into account, but as you still see Yahoo in Chinese, make sure the proper settings are selected and log out from your account.

Clear your browser's cache and cookies and close it. Reopen your browser and go to Yahoo World. Choose United States (English) and log in to your Yahoo account.

I think that is a new marketing policy of yahoo, nothing that we can change....
