But, of course, you shouldn't go about blindly deleting stuff since not all the files are owned by language specific packages. What I would first do is run "yum grouplist" and see what groups are installed. You may very well see things like "Armenian Support" or "Georgian Support" under the list of Installed Groups. I would first identify those and then go about doing "yum groupremove" on those you don't want. I would certainly check the size of /usr/share/locale with "du -s" to determine the size and to see what effect the removals.
