Office 2016 Mac Greek Language Pack

Summary: Learn about the language packs and language interface packs that are available for Office.

An installation of Office 2016 can include applications or user interface elements in more than one language because some Office 2016 products are not available in every language.

I have an office 2016 Volume license edition installed on my computer. I want to install proofing tools for Greek. However, if your Office is in any of the official 36 languages like English, German, Russian or Spanish, and you want to completely change it to another major language, you need a Language Pack, which in case of Office 2013 costs you a little (in Euro region €19.99). Install the language accessory pack for your desired language. Open any Office program, click File Options Language. Under Choose Editing Languages, make sure the language you want to use is.

This article describes the language versions that are available for a subset of Office 2016 applications, the Office 2016 applications that will work with Language Interface Packs, and the recommended base languages to install for Office 2016 Language Interface Packs.

This article describes methods of deploying and managing language packs for versions of Office 2016 that use the Windows Installer (MSI) installation technology, which are available for enterprises through volume licensing. If you have an Office subscription and you're deploying Microsoft 365 Apps, which uses the Click-to-Run installation technology, see Overview of deploying languages for Microsoft 365 Apps.

Applications and language availability

In some non-English language versions of Office 2016, a specific Office 2016 application may not be available. For example, Access 2016 is not available in Hindi. Therefore, the Hindi language version of Office 2016 is installed in English.

Some Office applications are not available in some languages. Project 2016 and Visio 2016 are available in a subset of languages, as shown in the following table.

Language Interface Packs

For some languages, Microsoft localizes only some Office 2016 applications and releases them as Language Interface Packs (LIPs). These LIPs localize the user interface only, and not the Help content. Administrators must first install a fully localized base language version (see the table later in this section) of Office 2016, and then install the LIP. Users can then work in their preferred language in the following applications and features:

• Excel 2016

• OneNote 2016

• Outlook 2016

• PowerPoint 2016

• Shared Office features

• Word 2016

• Skype for Business 2016, but only for the following languages:

  • Albanian: sq-SQ

  • Azerbaijani (Latin): az-Latn-AZ

  • Basque: eu-ES

  • Belarusian: be-BE

  • Catalan: ca-ES

  • Farsi (Persian): fa-IR

  • Filipino: fil-PH

  • Galician: gl-ES

  • Macedonian: mk-MK

  • Serbian (Cyrillic): sr-Cyrl-RS

  • Uzbek (Latin): uz-Latn-UZ

The remaining Office applications appear in the base Office 2016 installation language. The following table lists the base language for each LIP language.

Language identifiers

Office 2016 is available in many languages. In an international setting, you can deploy multiple language versions of Office 2016 in a single installation process. Setup combines a language-neutral core product with one or more language-specific packages to create a complete product.

On the source media, language-specific packages are organized into separate folders. Each folder name has a language tag appended to it, in the form ll-cc. That tag identifies the language and culture. For example, U.S. English language folders are identified by the folder name extension en-us. The language tags help you determine the folders that you have to copy to the network installation point.

The language folders that are included in a fully localized version of an Office 2016 product are the same as the language folders that are included in the Microsoft Office 2016 Language Pack for a specific language. For example, the same Outlook.ar-sa folder is used in the Arabic language version of Office 2016, the Arabic language version of Outlook 2016, and the Office 2016 Language Pack - Arabic.

Note

Language tags are also referred to and used as 'language IDs' for some procedures.

Office 2016 offers localized versions in all the languages that are listed in the following table. Folders for the language-specific components are identified by the language tag that is shown in the table. The Windows operating system uses locale identifiers (LCIDs) to identify languages in the Windows registry.

In addition to the fully localized languages listed here, Office 2016 provides Language Interface Packs (LIPs), which contain a subset of language-specific components and are designed to be installed together with a logical parent language. Elements that are not localized in the LIP language appear in the parent language. For more information about LIPs, see Language Interface Packs.
