I accidentally changed the system language to Hebrew, but my keyboard layout stayed the same. I can't read the system settings well enough to navigate back to English. How can I restore the language using a terminal or another method?

If you’re using Debian, Ubuntu, or Mint, open a terminal and run `sudo update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8`, then log out and back in or reboot the computer.

Another option is `localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8`. After running it, log out or restart so the English locale takes effect.

If the settings are too difficult to read, use a phone translation app with its camera feature to translate the menus and change the language graphically.
