Easy way if you will never need the other languages - uninstall gimp, then 
install again but choose to customize your install. Then remove check box from 
the Translations. Voila. Alternatives are, find and delete the localizations 
from your Program files/Gimp (not exact location, medium level task) folder or 
teaching your windows to set your LANGUAGE env variable(advanced level task).

You get answered.

Perhaps you should try Paint.NET instead? Or Picasa? No point getting 
frustrated over software.
