Strange keyboard shortcuts and menu items

keyboardlanguageshortcut-menu

I have just noticed that some items in the click-right menu and in the keyboard shortcuts settings are displayed in a different language now (Portuguese). The system default language is English and the OS is 10.6.8.

Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

This kind of localization glitch can often be fixed by going to system preferences/language & text/language and using the Edit button to uncheck the box for the offending language and then restarting.

Reports of this issue are not uncommon in the Apple forums.
