Unwanted Chinese language got set in system settings [duplicate]

Solution 1:

I noticed in files /etc/environment, $HOME/.profile following lines were present:

export LANGUAGE="zh_CN:en"
export LC_MESSAGES="zh_CN.UTF-8"
export LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
export LC_COLLATE="zh_CN.UTF-8"

and in /etc/default/locale only US English line was present as you can see this snapshot:

I went to those files and deleted these extra lines of Chinese Language now I am able to resolve this problem and things are back on track.

However specially want to mention that gnome-language-selector did not help at all.

Sharing this for future archives hope this solution will help some one in future.

Solution 2:

edit your file

/etc/default/locale

in there change all settings to

en_US.UTF-8
