Muhammad,
to chnage the OS language, please have a look at:
man locale
You can play with:
LANG=en_GB.utf8
export LANG
If you now do a man ls, your prompt has changed to english.

Hi
When display follow screen,

EFI Boot Manager ver 1.10 [14.61] Please select a boot option
HP-UX Primary Boot: 4/0/1/1/0.2.0
EFI Shell [Built-in]
Boot Option Maintenance Menu
Use ^ and v to change option(s). Use Enter to select an option

"HP-UX Primary Boot" ==> When this line is position first line, system will be boot as designation path.
If the "EFI Shell" is the first line, the system is to go EFI mode. In this case modify Boot order.
Select "Boot Option Maintenance Menu" --> "Change Boot Order" ==> Move cursor to this line and type "U" key to change upside.

And Language Setting method is..
Edit the file with vi editor
# vi /etc/rc.config.d/LANG
LANG=en_GB.utf8

have a nice day...
