Gnome-classic language turned into Chinese, how do I change it back to English? [duplicate]

Solution 1:

Solution:

1. Edit /etc/default/locale:

   LANG="en_US"
   LANGUAGE="en_US:en"
   

2. Edit ~/.pam_environment:

   LANG=en_US
   Language=en_US
   

Logout and Login or Reboot.

Solution 2:

I'd recommend you login into the Unity session, because I'm not sure where I can find all of these options in a Gnome Classic session.

Click on your username in the upper right corner of the screen, and choose the bottom option in the menu that pops out.

In the dialog that opens, the second option allows you to change your language.

Change it back to English, or whatever language you like. Then, reboot.
