I created my account and first blog while waiting at the airport in Switzerland. Now my admin page and blog are in German! I can't understand what most of it means, so I can't seem to be able to switch it back to English.
Please help?
Thank you!

Go to Einstellungen/Allgemein/Sprache der Seite (wp-admin/options-general.php
) and select English. Then click the Button Änderungen übernehmen.
in the version 4.0 or above just go to Settings > general > Site Language and choose your desired language.
You can find more information in Wordpress Codex.
You can use Google Chrome.
And using the built-in Google Translator you can translate your non-English web page or admin panel to a readable format at least.
In your German (non-English Google Translate Supported language) web page/admin panel click on to the Translate button
Hit the Translate button
Then you can easily change the language to English from Settings » General » at the very bottom of the page Site Language.
