Language in menu's

Hello,
I have a problem with the language that appears inside menu's and stuff.
I bought my student and home edition of office in The Netherlands and I started word, then it opened a window that said i had to give my name and adress,
I did, but with english layout.
Does this affect the way office handles menu languages?
I don't think so.
But i installed a software update and, very dumb, didn't read the license agreement, and clicked continue.
I think that there was a pop-up menu that let me choose in wich language i installed the update and thus office.
Is there a way to let me choose the language of the menu's without reinstalling office?

Post Scriptum: I don't speak really good english because i am eleven years old and dutch.

Some of the supporting apps (like the Setup assistant) are bundled
applications contaning multiple languages. If your system is set on
English, the dialogs will follow that and display in English.
No matter what, Word, Excel and PPT should be in Dutch though.

You can't change the language of the core apps in Office. A Dutch
version REQUIRES and Dutch updater. The UI should remain in Dutch no
matter what. The updater shouldn't even work if there is a language
mismatch.

That's not a problem
