Hi @Anna Prilipko and welcome to the community,

According to the documentation (https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/choosing-a-default-language-214860191.html):

Individual users can choose the language that Confluence will use to display screen text and messages. Note that the list of supported languages depends on the language packs installed on your Confluence site.

The language used for your session will depend on the settings below, in the following order of priority from highest to lowest:

• The language preference defined in your user profile. Note that you need to be logged in for this setting to take effect.

• The language that you choose by clicking an option at the bottom of the Confluence login screen. Confluence stores this value in a cookie. When the cookie expires, the setting will expire too. 

• The language set in your browser. The browser sends a header with a prioritized list of languages. Confluence will use the first supported language in that list. Confluence administrators can disable this option by setting the confluence.browser.language.enabled system property to false. 

• The default language for your site, as defined by your Confluence site administrator. 

So start from the top bullet and see what language you have set up on your profile.

Let me know if these will resolve your problem.
