I found a solution for my environment:

• I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
• Opera rel. 114.0.5282.21 (snap version)
  I added --lang=it (my preferred language) to the command line used by opera launcher
  
  Great: it works fine!!!

Now I will test Ubuntu 24.04.4 over my laptop and over VMVirtualMachine, but I'm optimist ...

many thanks!

I edited the file with an editor and was able to change the language.

/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/opera_opera.desktop

@yokoopera - always work on a copy of the activator

cp /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/opera_opera.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/

Can't still change the language except for the method submitted earlier... Did you have any plan to let us do it from the Opera Settings?

@the-codifier It works with my Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon.
Thank you kindly.

Sorry for the late reply.

I have already uninstalled the snap version and am using the apt(deb) version.

I think your information will be useful when I switch to the snap version in the future.

Thank you!

This is fixed in Opera Developer 126.0.5748.0. At the URL opera://settings/languages, you can add a language, click its 3 dots and check "Display Opera in this language" and it'll actually work.

Thank you for your notification.

I installed Opera Developer 126.0.5748.0 (DEB) and tested it.

In this version, the UI language has been replaced with the specified language.

I think this is a very good update and hope it will be implemented in Opera Stable.
