Description
It happens when the previous locale and the following locale have different translations for "Raster" and "Vectorial".
For example, if the previous locale is Spanish and it is changed to American English, we will get four menus: "Vector", "Raster", "Ráster" and "Vectorial".
There is a workaround: click "Reset to defaults" in Settings -> Options -> Processing and restart QGIS.

Same for French, except that only the Vector menu is there twice.

@Jan, what is the language of your system? And if English, do "vector" and "raster" translate differently?
I can confirm with master (QGIS 3.3) and I can not confirm using the same release, ie:- If I turn off my locale override setting (fallback to French) while running my "default" user profile and close/relaunch QGIS, I have a French environment with Vecteur + Vector menus
- If I use another user profile I had set up a while back in French (I can't tell how I did it but it always opens in French), I get a single well placed Vecteur menu.
@Asier Could you check how it behaves if you create a new profile in your locale? What would be nice is to also know what is really covered by this user profile setting (see https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/2739)...

If I create a new profile, the problem dissapears: I can switch among languages without further issues.
However, if I click the "Reset to defaults" button in "Settings -> Options -> Processing -> Menus", the issue starts again.
I identified "/profilename/QGIS/QGIS3.ini" as the file to be blamed. After clicking "Reset to defaults", the [Processing] section in that file is filled with a bunch of new lines similar to:
Configuration\BUTTON_3d%3Atessellate=false
Configuration\ICON_gdal%3Abuildvirtualraster=
Configuration\MENU_gdal%3Aaspect=&Raster/Analisia
Configuration\MENU_grass7%3Av.what.rast=
Configuration\MENU_native%3Abuffer=Bekt&oriala/&Geoprozesatze-tresnak
...
Note the Basque strings in some of the lines.
Deleting those strings manually from the QGIS3.ini file fixes the issue.
