Default Keyboard short cut to change keyboard language setting

You can change the keyboard settings (including the switch shortcut) from
Windows Control panel Regional Settings. You can eliminate the English
Keyboard altogether if you wish or display the language toolbar - whatever
suits your requirements.

Using a keyboard short cut it is possible to change to English
keyboard from the default language setting, which in my case is
Norwegian. For example, pushing the sign "ø" on the Norwegian
keyboard (third row, third from the right) then returns ";"

I mainly use the keyboard to navigate, rather than the mouse, and by
mistake I often happen to change the language setting of the
keyboard. To cancel that setting and return to the default language
setting I have to exit the program (for example Word, or Powerpoint)
and then open it again.

I have tried many times to find out what it is I am doing when I
mistakenly change the keyboard language setting, but till now without
success. I think it is something with Ctrl + ..., or Ctrl + ... + ...
(where the latter is a key at the right hand side of the letter
keyboard).
Does anyone know this keybard command?
