I'm curious if you get something different for that last one (no utf8
qualifier).

on my Fedora 30 box.

This gives me:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US

Nothing for this.

There's LANG and LANGUAGE but they look like they effectively agree to me?

ElementaryOS 5.1 Hera, which is built on top of Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS (and
Linux 4.15.0-72-generic).

This suggests I have the standard Ubuntu Turkish language packages
installed:

$ dpkg -l | grep language-pack-tr
ii  language-pack-tr                              1:18.04+20180712
                       all          translation updates for language Turkish
ii  language-pack-tr-base                         1:18.04+20180712
                       all          translations for language Turkish
