Google Analytics is undergoing a massive revamp. The new Analytics has been in the works for about a year now, more if you count internal development and testing. It's been available to all users for quite a while now and Google has been adding more features, such as flow visualizations in the meantime.

But the old Analytics is still available and it's still the default. Google will start switching to the new interface and will eventually move everyone over to it, but it is going to take time.

First, Google needs to make sure that the new Analytics doesn't take away anything from the older version and that users feel they are getting something in return of having to learn a completely new interface.

In the meantime, Google has finished translating Analytics in nine more languages, for a total of 40 now. The new interface is currently available fully translated in nine new languages that haven't been supported at all so far.

The new languages added are Arabic, Croatian, Hebrew, Hindi, Latvian, Romanian, Serbian, Slovenian and Ukrainian.

"To change the language of an Analytics account to any of these new languages, you have to activate the new interface, if you haven’t already, by clicking on the 'new version' button at the top of the account. Then, navigate to the settings page where you can select the new language," Google explained.

Note that the old interface is not available in the new languages. However, the Analytics help center now offers support in any of the new languages now supported, making it easier to get started with the new interface or even with Analytics in general.

The new languages available should make it easier for new users to start with Analytics, existing users should have no problem with the English interface, or whichever one they're using, by now.
