Windows 10: How do i turn back to English?

It suddenly turned to Chinese characters even though all the settings i set was in English. Checked control panel and settings, it all said it was in english. How do i turn it back to English

:)

 

English (United States) for adding language is greyed.

The step where a list of optional languages are displayed.

The US English is presently not installed, and there is no other language except a base language which came with W10 22H2. Edit: So I just installed the US English. That is it. The US English is greyed because I took the first step of "Add Language" and forgot completing whole steps.
