That are the locale coming from Windows.
You can set a different locale in you shell startup scripts
$ grep LANG .bashrc
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
$ grep LANG .bash_profile
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

may beecho 'export LANG=en_US.UTF-8' >> ~/.bashrcas otherwise you will destroy the current content. If he does not know what grep is doing we are very low on the Cygwin knowledge
