Unable to access foreign language keyboard on my MacBook Air running Word 16.83

On my 2016 Mac this worked beautifully. I brought up the small keyboard on the top toolbar and I could toggle between English, Czech and German. Not so on my new MacBook Air with Word 16.83. I have entered these 3 languages as input languages, added the keyboard button in my upper toolbar, made sure all the settings are as per instructions, rebooted my computer ... but no. The keyboard button, when opened, only shows me English. So I cannot type in any other language.

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Where do I hit plus to add these languages? Nothing happens when I am in "all input Sources" and I see no button there to ad a language.

Apple should probably make that more prominent, I've seen several cases where users did not see it easily.

I found the buttons at the very bottom of the screen. Appears to be working now, thank you very much. I would still like to delete my screen shot of the general screen on this thread, if you can tell me how.

Thanks!!
