Bash is a shell, which runs INSIDE a terminal. The terminal is bash's
parent process -- something like xterm or gnome-terminal -- if you are
under X, or the Linux kernel's builtin console if you aren't.
(Or if you're ssh-ing in from another system, the terminal is running
on the client, and could be something like Putty, etc.)

The command you want to run here is "locale".
But cherry-picking from this...

Looks like a complete disaster. You've got two entirely different
encodings here (one iso8859-* and one utf-8).
First you need to figure out what terminal you're using, on what
kind of computer, and whether that terminal supports UTF-8 or not.
If the terminal is UTF-8 capable then your locale should be a UTF-8
one, not an ISO-8859-* (single byte) one.
