I would like to have UI in English but week/month names in another language (lets say French, Spanish, Italian ,etc.)
Seems like when I set UI to English, there is no control on week/month names. I just can change calendar type and other similar settings.
This type of settings is extremely useful if your native language is not English, but you prefer to have UI in english.
I am suing KDE in Ubuntu 14.04
Update:
after running sudo update-locale LC_TIME=it_IT.UTF-8
I receive this error:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = "en:it:fr:en",
LC_ALL = (unset),

are supported and installed on your system.

Update 2:
output of local -a
(now I dont have French language selected in options any more)

Week and month names in calendars are usually controlled by the LC_TIME
environment variable, so you need to change that. This command sets/changes LC_TIME
in the /etc/default/locale
file:
sudo update-locale LC_TIME=fr_FR.UTF-8
At next login, weeks/months will hopefully be displayed in French.
Edit: The Problem is related to this bug. As suggested inside the comments, changing the default language to British English fix the issue.
Also more or less the same problem is discussed here.
