Can you please post the results of these two commands (to be executed
in a terminal):

echo $LC_ALL
echo $LANG

In the startup script there is test for these.

Another thing to try: edit (or delete) the file
$HOME/.grass7/wx

which may contain a line "language;..." <<-- remove from file. Or
delete this wx file which just contains some GUI user setting.

Let us know how it goes,
Markus
