Another way is to access the Control Panel, where you click the "Change keyboards or other input methods" link from the "Clock, Language, and Region" category.
In the "Region and Language" window, click the "Change keyboards" button.
In the General tab from the "Text Services and Input Languages" window, you should see the list of currently installed input languages. To add a new one, click the Add button.
From the long list of available languages, select the one(s) you want. To see how a specific language looks on your keyboard, select it and click Preview.
On the screen, you should see a virtual keyboard with the keys specific to the selected input language. When done, click Close.
After you have selected the languages that you want to add, click OK and you are taken back to the "Text Services and Input Languages" window.
If you want to change the order of the installed input languages, select them using your mouse to click the Move up and Move down buttons.
If you want to remove a keyboard input language, select it and click the Remove button. The keyboard input language is removed immediately, without any additional confirmation.
How to customize the language bar in Windows 7
When you have installed more than one keyboard input language in Windows 7, the language bar is activated by default. To customize it, click the "Language Bar" tab of the "Text Services and Input Languages" window. In the first section of the window, you can customize the position of the bar.
You can choose to have it floating on your desktop, docked in the taskbar or hidden from view. Below you can find a screenshot showing how it looks on the desktop:
The language bar can also reside on the taskbar:
If you choose to hide it, you do not see it anywhere on the desktop. In the "Text Services and Input Languages" window, you also have options for:

You can also use the keyboard shortcut Left Alt + Shift to achieve the same result.
