Internet Explorer 8 and languages

Internet Explorer 8 is included in my new Windows 7, but not in the right
language. I would like to have an Internet Explorer with English texts. How
can I change that?

Change your Internet Explorer language settings

Unless you're running Win7 Ultimate (or Enterprise), you're limited to
adding English input language:

Thanks for your answers. And it is not possible to download a new Internet
Explorer 8 for my Windows 7 (with the right language)?

The message I got was the OP was not asking about "input" languages.

Are you running Windows 7 Ultimate or are you running an English-language
version of another Windows 7 edition (e.g., Win7 Home Premium; Win7
Starter)?

I am running Win 7 Home Premium. All the texts of the (included) Internet
Explorer are in the wrong language, dialog boxes, menus (Is that called
display language?) My idea was to download a new English Internet Explorer 8,
but maybe that is not possible.

What do you mean with "the wrong language"?

Are the texts in the Internet Explorer not the same as all other texts
in your operating system? Do you mean you have a German or French system,
for example, and you call German or French "wrong" and would have liked
English instead?

Other people will call English "the wrong language". So it is important
to write what system language you have, what you expected to get, and
why you call it "wrong".

Is it an English-language version of Win7 Home Premium, Sara?

It is an English-language version of Win7 Home Premium, but I bought it in
Germany.
Yes, the texts in the Internet Explorer are not the same as all other texts
in the system. The display language of the Internet Explorer 8 is German,
which is (for me) the wrong language. I would like to have the English
version of Internet Explorer 8.
I thought, I could solve the problem by downloading a new Internet Explorer
or changing the language, but none of this seems to be possible. (Or maybe I
don't know how to do it.)
