    everything works with my locale setting except synaptic

    In System settings -> locale, Country is set to "Brasil", Language is set to "American English" first and then "Brazilian Portuguese".

    After that, everything qt based works in English. After editing ~/.kde/env/setlocale.sh and /etc/default/locale, really almost everything works in English, except synaptic.

    If I open a konsole and type:
    ivan@ivan-4770:~/.kde/env$ synaptic --help

    ** (synaptic:12081): WARNING **: Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
    synaptic for Debian 0.81.1


    Utilização: synaptic [opções]
    -h Este texto de ajuda

    (cut...)

    So synaptic works in Portuguese instead of English. The warning is irrelevant for this issue, and probably related of not being root. (kdesudo konsole -> opens a root konsole -> same result, with no warning) But:

    ivan@ivan-4770:~$ locale -a
    C
    C.UTF-8
    en_AG
    en_AG.utf8
    en_AU.utf8
    en_BW.utf8
    en_CA.utf8
    en_DK.utf8
    en_GB.utf8
    en_HK.utf8
    en_IE.utf8
    en_IN
    en_IN.utf8
    en_NG
    en_NG.utf8
    en_NZ.utf8
    en_PH.utf8
    en_SG.utf8
    en_US.utf8
    en_ZA.utf8
    en_ZM
    en_ZM.utf8
    en_ZW.utf8
    POSIX
    pt_BR.utf8

    So I do have en_US.utf8, and

    ivan@ivan-4770:~$ locale
    LANG=en_US.UTF-8
    LANGUAGE=ent:en
    LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8"
    LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf8"
    LC_TIME="en_US.utf8"
    LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8"
    LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf8"
    LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8"
    LC_PAPER="en_US.utf8"
    LC_NAME="en_US.utf8"
    LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8"
    LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8"
    LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf8"
    LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8"
    LC_ALL=en_US.utf8

    my settings actually make it clear that I want everything in English. Others GTK programs does work in english. Except Synaptic.

    Does anyone know how to toggle Synaptic language setting?

    Try sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales. Un-check any that you don't need/want.
