Description

Does not recognize language correctly - takes naive assumptions about the relation between input language and locale.

Steps to Reproduce

Use English as language of input
Use Israel as location (IL)
Use Atom with spell-check.
Start Atom

Expected behavior:

Should work.

Actual behavior:

I get on the top-right the following error message, and in settings page the plugin is paused:

The package spell-check cannot load the checker for en_IL. See the settings for ways of changing the languages used, resolving missing dictionaries, or hiding this warning.

IMHO - there is no such locale as en_IL

Reproduces how often:

Every time I start Atom

The code uses the LANG environment variable to guess languages. Would you be so kind as to give the output from the following command:

echo $LANG
