Pages in wrong language

I opened up Pages to type up a letter and everything is in Spanish.

I have looked everywhere in my Mac for the solution and Cannot find anything.


Help!!!

Are the menu names In Spanish or English?



Is this an example of the 'Spanish' you see? (Ignore the red bits—aimed a bit high when I took the screen shot.)



This is "placeholder text" that will disappear as soon as you start typing in the space it occupies. It's in Latin so that the person viewing it can concentrate on the appearance of 'text' in the document, without being distracted by what it says (unless that viewer reads Latin).
