Welcome to the world of Marble! ;-)

Looking at the source code it seems that currently the plugin gets
its information from MarbleLocale::languageCode(). This in turn 
retrieves it via QLocale::system().name().
So in theory it should use whatever the operating system's locale is.

And indeed on my PC it's using german.

So on a Unix-like system such as Linux you can change the language for Marble by 
starting Marble from the command line by launching it like this:

LC_ALL=es_ES marble

(for spanish) or

LC_ALL=fr_FR marble

(for the french translation)

We could think about introducing some setting to override this somehow.

Best Regards,

Torsten
