Title:
  `rm -i` doesn't work well if "language-pack-es" is installed. Problems
  arise

Status in coreutils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Dear people,

  SUMMARY
  After "deleting" files, sometimes users will have great problems because, for example, important information has not been deleted and users don't know it.

  STEPS TO REPRODUCE
  Install the "language-pack-es" package, reboot.
  Execute `touch 1; rm -i 1`
  See that you are asked "rm: ¿borrar el fichero regular vacío '1'? (s/n)" (it means "do you want to delete the empty file 1?").
  Press the S key (that means the same as pressing the Y key in the English-speaking version)
  Press Return.
  See that the file is not deleted, and you don't know about it.

  EXPECTED RESULT
  As always has happened, pressing the S key and Return would have deleted the file.
  Note: Pressing the Y key and Return really deletes the file.

  OS VERSIONS
  Linux: Ubuntu 20.10
  Note: The bug doesn't happen using Ubuntu 20.04
