If you have the Firefox user interface (menu bar) in the wrong language or want to change the current language then you can get the language of your choice here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html

Uninstall the current Firefox version, but make sure that you do not remove your personal data. Install the new Firefox version of the wanted language.

See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup and Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles .......... You may need to (re)set the pref "general.useragent.locale" to the preferred language (e.g. "en-US" or "en-GB") on the about:config page. You can open the about:config page via the location bar, like you open a web site. Use the Filter bar at the top of that page to quickly locate the pref.
