LANGUAGE is a variable that can specify a list of prefered languages, with `:` as the separator. See the documentation here in the manual of gettext:

  https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/The-LANGUAGE-variable.html#The-LANGUAGE-variable

In KDE System Settings, section "Regional Settings/Language", you probably have specified that you prefer "italiano" and then "American English". That is wky konsole sets that variable.

As documented, LANGUAGE has a precedence over LANG or LC_* variables. See also:

  https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Locale-Environment-Variables.html#Locale-Environment-Variables

By unsetting it, you let the code fallback to the other variables.
