Is it possible to get bash to use a fallback language for showing

Instead of using the 'raw' msgid that is.

The msgid is supossed to be the fallback.  That's how gettext works.

Not entirely. See the glibc documentation for the LANGUAGE environment variable.

   While for the `LC_xxx' variables the value should consist of exactly
one specification of a locale the `LANGUAGE' variable's value can
consist of a colon separated list of locale names.  The attentive
reader will realize that this is the way we manage to implement one of
our additional demands above: we want to be able to specify an ordered
list of language.
