Hi Alexandre,

you easily could start QGIS with --lang option to force a specific language. E.g. $ qgis --lang en_US On Windows you have to add this to the qgis.bat file, as on Windows qgis is not startetd by executing a *.exe directly

Best regards

Hi,

I have raised this before, but I wanted to ask for it again. Currently, QGIS default is not to Override System Locale and use the system's locale for User interface.

If the system locale language happens to have good and reliable translations, this works well, but when the language is incomplete or poorly translated, this IMHO poses a problem.

The European Portuguese translation is quite poor, with many errors and bad translations. In the end it is sometimes hard to work with the GUI in PT_pt. To me the bad thing is it looks bad on the project reputation and people (users) read it as a symptom of bad quality software, which is not the case.

So, I wanted to suggest if we could have American english as the default for the GUI? Would this  be reasonable?

Thanks,

Alexandre Neto
