Changing Language Cont’d
The Blog language is the language in which you write your blog.
Each blog has its own language setting, so if you have multiple blogs associated with your
account, each one can have a different language setting.

Interface Language
The Interface Language is the language used by your dashboard elements (or user interface).
This is specific to each WordPress.com account. It does not differ between blogs.

WordPress.com VS WordPress.orgTo understand the difference, we must first
understand how hosting works.
① Domain/address: You type the domain name into your web browser.
② Domain Name Servers/System: The DNS makes sure you get connected to the right computer.
③ Hosting: And that computer or server has your website files hosted on it

Gallery
An image gallery will display a set of small images attached to a particular post or page. Readers can click on any image to
launch a full-size carousel that allows them to scroll through the entire gallery one image at a time.
With the slideshow option, images will automatically move from one to the next after a few seconds.
