How to change input language?

Question

I want to be able to switch between my input languages, but I can't drag and drop the languages in language support because the languages seem to be greyed out, what should I do?

Solution 1

You have to go to Dash and select "Text Entry" as shown in the picture below

Then you have to press + button to add your preferred languages.

Solution 2

In Language Support you can change the display language. The place to control the input language is System Settings -> Text Entry.
