Can I change the Windows 8 Pro language after buying a PC? [duplicate]

Yes you can! This represents a change from Windows 7.

You can change the language by

  1. From the charm search bar search language and choose Settings
  2. In the Language Control Panel, tap or click Add a language
  3. To make it a display language move the panel to the top of the list. For example, move the spanish panel on top of the English panel.

See the official kb.

--edit-- Wikipedia says these features should be available in all versions; with the exception of exotic Chinese only versions.
