  Does anybody know if it is possible to set up blog for two languages with the switching button.

  No I’m sorry but this is not currently possible on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. We can only salect one interface language for our blogs here > Settings > General
  But the good news is that when you create two blogs in different lanuages you can create custom links in a custom menu to interlink the two in the top horizontal blog menu where tabs to pages usually appear.

  Thank you again. I’ve already tried to connect my english version blog to the main one and it is working great. I appreciate your help.

  Having a separate blog is a workaround but not very elegant.
