 * Hello,
 * I’m a WordPress developer. Recently I developed a multilingual plugin. In some
   sections of my plugin I need to change WordPress language and print some text.
 * Let’s say these 3 languages are installed on my WordPress. I need to switch WP
   language in a foreach loop.
 *     ```
       $langs = array('en_US', 'de_DE', 'es_ES');
       foreach($langs as $lang)
       {
           change_wp_locale($lang); /** I need a code to do this **/
           echo __('Hello', 'my-text-domain');
       }
       ```
   
 * Any Idea? Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
