Re: Terminal is not working

Move you shell configuration file out of the way and see if that fixes things.

For example, if you use bash run this command from a root login at a console (replace $user with the actual user name):

su -c '/bin/bash -c "mv ~/.bashrc{,.orig}"' - $user

If it does fix the problem either check ~/.bashrc.orig for errors or share it here for us to look at.

You could also check the X.Org log for error messages, if you're using X.

Re: Terminal is not working

terminator and gnome-terminal are the same VTE and it's hyper locale-sensitive.
If HoaS's suggestion doesn't help, see whether you can start and xterm or foot or any other TE that's not a wrapper around vte3
