Go to Tools>Customise>Toolbars. Choose the Formatting toolbar from the drop 
down list at the top and then select Character Formatting almost at the 
bottom of the lower drop down list. This adds a "Format Character" button to 
the Formatting toolbar which you can then press to select the language you 
want.

You could also use the Styles drop down list (left of the font name) to 
select the relevant style based on your (prior) definition of a different 
*named* paragraph style for each language you use. If you write 
multi-lingual documents you can also set "Check in all languages" by going 
to Tools>Options>Language Settings>Writing Aids and selecting it under 
Options. In this way each paragraph is checked in its own language. Define 
each language style to be "followed by" itself so that you don't need to 
keep selecting it when writing multiple paragraphs in the same language.
