Skype for Mac OS X

Getting started

Change default language

Skype for Mac is currently available in English, Bulgarian, Chinese (Traditional), Dutch, Estonian, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Portuguese (Brazilian), Portuguese (European), Polish, Russian and Spanish. Skype automatically detects your system language for Mac OS X and uses that language for Skype. If you are using a system language that is not supported by Skype, your default language for Skype will be set to English.

We are working hard to translate Skype into as many languages as possible. If you would like to volunteer to help us translate Skype in your language, please visit our forums.
