MacOS – Change Date Format to German (English)

internationalizationmacossettings

I accidentally changed my date format from "German (English)" to "German (Germany)". Now I can't seem to get it back.

I need that format. I changed a UK Format to my needs but having a predefined option would make me much happier.

Any suggestions on how to get it back?

(I'm running OSX 10.8.5)

You can change date format, decimal sign, etc. under:

system preferences > language & text > region (tab)

I believe if you set your region to english and then go to

system preferences > language & text > language (tab)

and select German there, you should have "German (English)" back.
