BC are simply two letters of the alphabet with no intrinsic meaning of their own.

As a common abbreviation BC stands for "Before Christ" or "British Columbia" in English and is not (as far as I am aware) used as an abbreviation in any other language.

So whether you want it in English or not, it is an English term.

Perhaps you are confused by the opposite of "Before Christ" - the Latin term Anno Domini (AD), meaning "in the year of the Lord". That is a Latin phrase, but BC is not.
