Languages in Snow Leopard (Finder Info Window)
In Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) and earlier, the Finder “Info” window for an application would allow you to enable and disable specific language packs. This was probably one of the least frequently features of the finder for average users, and so it was removed in Snow Leopard.
Unfortunately, I used that feature all the time 
Primarily to disable the horrendous Chinese localization (halfway done) that is Adium. For me, reading Chinese is easy and reading english is even easier. But when a set of menus is half Chinese/half english, then my eye just automatically skips over the Chinese part, skipping to the english part I can read without even thinking…
There is a FREE utility that you can download to get this functionality back. It’s called “Language Switcher“. Language Switcher will even allow you to launch two instances of an application, both in different languages. Take a look!
