AliExpress does not have good customer service which you can easily contact, just robots which work unsuccessfully in this case. Also their help is limited. For some reason, the language of their system changed to Spanish in my account. I do not know Spanish.
How can you change the language of AliExpress to English?
Simply delete your cookies in your browser (I use Chrome). Specifically, the one for alibaba.com However, deleting all your cookies is usually a good idea.
Some have suggested: when Aliexpress comes up in Spanish just click the English site button on the top right. However, this is only a temporary fix and doesn't solve the problem long term. Just delete the cookie(s).
This is how to change AliExpress to English.
Usually the problem is that AliExpress detects your country location incorrectly, thus displaying the wrong language -- here are several solutions that you can try (results vary).
Cookie solution
More detailed instructions here (source).
VPN solution
The permanent solution is to use a VPN to change your "geolocation" -- so that you can obtain a working IP address from the nearest English speaking country (US, UK, etc).
Not any VPN will do, especially when doing security sensitive shopping activities (a) VPN needs to be trusted (b) it's better to have many server locations to choose from.
Other solutions
This is the most obvious but can fail, click on the "Go to Global Site (English)" link:
You can also try to obtain a different IP address by contacting through other means, such as your phone connection, friends house, neighbour, etc.
Try to edit and lock those cookies:
aep_usuc_f = region=AU&site=glo&b_locale=en_US&c_tp=USD
intl_locale = en_US
xman_us_f = x_l=0&x_locale=en_US
On the top right corner, there is an option
"Go to Global site (English)".
Just click on it and your problem will be resolved.
Another solution for Chrome users - AliEng extension which changes the language of AliExpress site to English.
Download the app. Just click the red box with 🔽 icon, even though it was in Spanish the app installed in English.
