from the Language drop-down menu to select the language from the preferred

Synapse uses a best-match algorithm for selecting a language if an exact match is not available. For example, if the browser preferred language list contains Hungarian and French (Canada) but the available language in SWAT is French (France), Synapse selects French (France) as the best match. If Synapse does not find a suitable match for any of the browser languages, Synapse defaults to English (US). - To display your newly selected preference, log out of Synapse and then log back in.
