• Answer:

  You do not have to close your account. If you registered with yahoo.com, all you need to do is change the language, here:s how... #1: Log into your mail account -> click "options" near the upper right. #2: On the options page click "account information" underneath "options" on the left side of the screen. #3: This will probably bring you to a page which requires you to enter your password again "for security purposes" -> then you should see a "review my account information" screen. #4: Scroll down to "member information" near the top, which contains basic information such as your gender, your email address, alternate address and "preferred content". Click "edit" at the top of this section, to the right of "member information" at the top. #5: On the "edit" screen scroll down to "preferred content" under "general preferences". This will display your current setting as a link -> click on it. #6: Now you'll see a page with a dropdown list from which you can select your preferred "language & content". From this list, select the country you want. #7: Click "finished", at this point you may be requested to enter your password one more time. That should take you to your "My Yahoo" page -> click on the e-mail link to go back to your mail account.
