  The blog is in English, but the administrator page is in Russian. I need to change the administrator page to English. How do I do this?

  There are two possible places to change language settings, one for the blog and one for the user account.

  I checked the blog language setting here:
  https://ewayodessa.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php

  And the ewayodessa username language setting here:
  https://ewayodessa.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php?page=grofiles-user-settings

  And they both appear to be set to English.

  If you are still having trouble, what is the exact URL where you see the problem happening and what username are you logged in as when you see Russian instead of English?

  The URL that is all in Russian is: http://ewayodessa.com/wp-admin/

  The username is: wp-admin

  Aha. The http://ewayodessa.com/ blog is not hosted at WordPress.com at all. It is a WordPress blog setup through a hosting company other than WordPress.com. See http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ to learn about the differences.

  I don’t have access to your http://ewayodessa.com/ blog since it’s not setup here at WordPress.com, but the instructions should be the same: check both the main Settings page as well as the Users > Your Profile page and make sure any language settings you see there are set to English.

  If you run into trouble, please post at http://wordpress.org/support/ which is the forum where WordPress.org issues are handled.
