Thread: Cannot get English as default language


i have computer dual boot ubuntu 10.04 , xp home. works fine except 1 thing:
sometime ago installed in ubuntu 10.04 greek second language. @ beginning fine switch language ease , menus in english.
1 day without warning or known event may have triggered following changes: menus become greek.

in language section moved greek further down (it second behind us) third place behind , canada languages. things ok menus except word processor , spreadsheets , few other minor areas

in desperation removed greek second language, many menus have improved not word processors , spreadsheets. off course can still change local language in word processor , spreadsheet, menus still there in greek.

yesterday installed other ubuntu, time 10.04.4 friend's computer, added again greek second language (in fact third 1 below , canada , clicked on button “apply system wide”. time menus in greek. speak , read greek , can live that, friends family includes users of computer not greeks.

kind desperate , embarrassed. have installed ubuntu @ least 20 times on last few years, of them 2 languages, have not faced similar situation ever.

appreciate solution.

thank all
