10. Configure Your Browser for Your Native Language
Me from Bangladesh and my Mother Tongue is Bangla. There are lots of websites where the information is given in Bangla Language and I have to visit them often. But the browsers are unable to show the Bangla Texts properly. So I have configured my browsers for Bangla Laguage. Now I can read my necessaries properly in Bangla. You may also configure your language following the way I have used.
