Is it possible to change Magento backend language for one user only?

Question

We got multi-lingual team, and couple of members do not speak each others languages. Is it possible to set Magento backend in separate languages for corresponding users?

Answer 1

each user can choose a language with the localization drop down at the left bottom of every admin pages

Answer 2

You should find that this module from AOE allows you to save the user's preferred language for the admin interface: https://github.com/AOEmedia/Aoe_BackendDefaultLanguage

Once the user has logged in, navigate to System>My Account and the last field (select drop-down) is language).
