Ubuntu: Chinese + English UI

I install gnome-do on my laptop last week. Gnome-Do is a very nice and powerful application launcher, the ideas is come from the Quicksliver.
However, I encounter some weird problems. First, I can not change to key binding from Space to Space. In the end, I found out that I made a stupid mistake, I should use space instead of the capital 'S'... Second, I can not launch some of the applications properly. It is because of the Chinese UI, for example, "Terminal" becomes "終端機". But I can not type chinese in gnome-do window... It is really awkward. Therefore, I decided to change my system language to English. After switching from Chinese UI to English UI, everything works just fine! I can read and type chinese directly without any modification~
After all, gnome-do is a really nice application, I will write some plug-in when I have time.
