The GPG man page gives the following information:

  Operation is further controlled by a few environment variables:
  [...]

  LANGUAGE
         Apart from its use by GNU, it is used in the W32 version to
         override the language selection done through the Registry. If
         used and set to a valid and available language name (langid),
         the file with the translation is loaded from
         gpgdir/gnupg.nls/langid.mo. Here gpgdir is the directory out of
         which the gpg binary has been loaded. If it can't be loaded the
         Registry is tried and as last resort the native Windows locale
         system is used.
