    You just change the language. One issue could be the German keyboard IIRC its not a standard QWERTY model.

    Easy to change default language in system preferences.

    Not sure if it defaults with the language flag in the top right of the menu bar (I have mine switched off) but if it does, you just click the flag and choose the language you want.

    Change Your Language
    Your Mac is set to display the language for the country in which you bought the computer. In other words, if you bought your Mac in the United States, your Mac is set to English. If you bought your Mac in France, your Mac understands French. But if you prefer to use a different language, you can

    thanks all.. off to get me a mac 😉

    I have an MacBook Pro which I bought in Canada and which I have left “set on Canadian” so that what comes out on the screen is what is printed on the keys.

    The only quirk is that there isn’t a pound sign on the keyboard.

    Pressing Alt and 3 makes the pound sign appear.

    Sounds like a good deal there.

    I think the first thing you should do is make sure your keyboard has the automated-grammar-correction plugin 🙂
