It corresponds to LANG=C, which is equivalent to asking gettext to display only the strings passed directly to it, with no attempts at localisation at all. Setting a true English locale has slightly different behaviour; for example there may be translations depending on the selected dialect of English, different time and currency displays are used, text sorting behaviour is different, and so on. A number of old-time Unix folks prefer LANG=C because it has simpler and more predictable behaviour, although in general we recommend English to most English-speaking users.
