Hi Stan, You can reorder the languages in the language rotor. Here are the steps (these also apply to reordering Favourites in the Phone app and in some other areas I can't think of right now):
Go to the Language rotor. I will use the example of US English and British English. You have the list of languages down the left side and to the right of each language is a button which Voiceover announces as "Reorder US English Button, Dragable" or "British English button, Dragable". Also, those languages that are selected to appear in the language rotor will say "Selected", e.g. "Selected, US English" or "Selected, British English". If any are selected you don't want or if there are some you want that are not selected, just double tap on the language on the left side and it will be selected or deselected. Now, in order to put US English at the top of the list, find it in the list on the left, then flick right to the "Reorder US English button". If you have "Speak Hints" enabled in the main Voiceover settings (it's the first item after "Practice Area) Voiceover will say the following after you flick to the Reorder button: Double tap and hold, wait for the sound, then drag to rearrange So, once you are on the reorder button, double tap and hold it until you hear the TriTone just as you would do to move an app or remove an app from the app switcher. After the tone sounds just drag your finger straight up on the screen without lifting it first. Each time you drag a language above the one before it in the list you hear a short metallic sounding ping and Voiceover will announce "Moved above and the name of the language". For example, let's assume you have British English at the very top of the list, then you have Australian English and then US English (I am using the English languages as examples, keep in mind that any other languages like French, German, Dutch etc. will be spoken in their language, so German is spoken not as "German" but as "Deutsch". In my example you want to drag US English first above Australian English and then above British English. 1. Double tap and hold on the "Reorder US English Button and wait for the tone" 2. Drag your finger straight up slowly and by just a small distance. 3. You will hear a ping and Voiceover will say "Moved above Australian English". 4. Drag on a bit further and you hear "Moved above British English". Once you reach the top you can continue dragging and nothing happens, no more pings, no more announcements since you can't go any further. Now you can exit Settings and if you turn to the language rotor the languages will now appear in the order you set, your default language is always first and then the rest. Please note, this will not make whichever language you put at the top your default language, this you have to change in "Settings", "International".
