Google Maps Language - Finnish - can't change back to English - HELP PLS

Hello
The Google Maps App on our Huawei P30 Lite phone was working fine - owned the phone more than a year.  Suddenly it has started speaking directions in Finnish language.  We went into Settings and there is a section to choose a language. It already shows English.  We selected English again and restarted the phone, but it is still speaking in Finnish.

Has anyone encountered this problem before and might have a suggestion for how to get back to English?

Many thanks. in advance.

    Does the last section of this page help at all? 

    Change Google Maps languages or domains - Google Maps Help

    I'm wondering if you have changed the language for text, but not the language for navigation. 
    The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.

    Thanks very much tacpot12, you were spot on! Have managed to change it. Much appreciated.

    Turns out it was Estonian, not Finnish!  But thanks also to flaneurs_lobster for the laugh!
