How do I reset Firefox back from Welsh to English?

3 years ago I changed the Firefox language on my iMac from English to Welsh in a fit of optimism as a Welsh learner. I would like to change back to English for a variety of reasons. Problem is that I am unable to negotiate the Welsh language menus in order to do something that was quite straightforward in English, from what I remember.

Can anyone help?

Firefox Menu > "Tools" >> "Options" > "Content"

  • Language > Choose > Select a Language to add > "Choose - English(en-US)"
    • Move the "English(en-US)" to Move Up >> Click "OK" >> "OK"

Dear both. Thank you.

@cor-el: downloaded the English version and simply used it to replace the Welsh one. Fine. All bookmarks automatically saved. Thanks.

@iamjaykumars: unfortunately, and curiously, the Welsh language Firefox menu does not correspond well with the English one, so I was unable to follow your suggested path even with a Welsh English dictionary on the table and Google Translate on the computer. For example, beyond "Tools" ("Offer" in Welsh) the path appears to run dry.
