Setting KDE Plasma's locale to be one and terminal and tty as another

Is there a pretty way to set KDE Plasma's locale to be one (ru_RU) and all of the terminals (Konsole, VSCode, etc) ant tty to be another (en_US)?

So far I have tried setting KDE Plasma to Russian using the UI, and adding

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

in my .bashrc, but there is no success. Even after listing the locales (and confirming LANG's locale is en_US.UTF-8), command output (like trying to run a command that doesn't exist) is still not shown in English.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Locale … ult_locale
But a bunch of LC_'s likely will be set. Make sure to override thos or "export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8", but also see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Locale … leshooting
