Cinnamon menu entry names truncated


I don't know what happened, but the entry names in Cinnamon main menu got truncated. How do I get them not truncated again?

This seems to be user specific problem.

A-ha. That happened when I removed tons of far&middle east fonts, and the default font went with them.
In system settings/fonts default font, desktop font, etc became undefined. When I selected an existing font for them, the menu entries show as not truncated again.
