Edit: Just realized this might actually be the STEAM CLIENT language, not the linux language.
In the Windows stats english only accounts for about 1/5th of steam users.
In Linux English might be extremelly overrepresented due to the steam client not detecting/using the distro's language and defaulting to English, which has happened to me many times.
