Hi!

So... system wide: gentoo ~ # locale LANG=en_GB.utf8 LC_CTYPE="en_GB.utf8" LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.utf8" LC_TIME="en_GB.utf8" LC_COLLATE="en_GB.utf8" LC_MONETARY="en_GB.utf8" LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.utf8" LC_PAPER="en_GB.utf8" LC_NAME="en_GB.utf8" LC_ADDRESS="en_GB.utf8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_GB.utf8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_GB.utf8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_GB.utf8" LC_ALL= Now for KDE: - System settings -> Country/Region & Language -> Country: Ukraine - System settings -> Country/Region & Language -> Languages: 1) British English 2) Russian 3) Ukrainian 4) Italian However, first weird thing, the date example comes out in Russian cyrillic, I would expect it to be in in British English, would I not? - System settings -> Country/Region & Language -> Number First selector's description is in Ukrainian (not Russian) - System settings -> Country/Region & Language -> Money The third selector's description is in Ukrainian (it's actually the same of the "number" tab), everything else is in English - System settings -> Country/Region & Language -> Calendar: The third selector's description is in Ukrainian, all other descriptions are in English. Proposed values for "Calendar system" are in English, all days' names are in Russian, though - System settings -> Country/Region & Language -> Date and Time: everything in English - System settings -> Country/Region & Language -> Other: everything in English Now for a quick use case with software: Open Dolphin: everything in English, however, if you select a directory, the side bar has "size of directories" value in Ukrainian, "modified" value is... in Russian. Open umbrello: everything is in English, but if I open the handbook I get it... in Ukrainian (Підручник з Umbrello UML Modeller). Open Digikam: the slash screen comes up in English, however, the strings that run superimposed on it are, again, mostly in Ukrainian. Open Kate: again, everything in English, the handbook is in Ukrainian (Підручник з Kate). This is happening here and there quite constantly, and it was giving me the impression that a large number of decisions on what language should be used are based on Country, rather than on "preferred languages". I still cannot figure out where the Russian strings would come from, though. Hope this makes things a bit clearer.
