HI, I was searching for "dokku pro" (where Dokku is the name of a self hosted PaaS) and got some results in Japanese despite my browser is configured with English as the language. My region is set to Finland. I couldn't find a setting to select which languages the search results should be for. Other times I got results in other languages which I wasn't familiar with.

Steps to reproduce this specific example:

  • use a browser configured with the English language like en-US
  • set region to Finland (not sure this is relevant)
  • search for "dokku pro"

I got several Japanese results on the second page. See screenshot. It would be awesome if we could restrict search results to specific languages.

    I ran into a similar problem while playing around with Kagi's extension and "go to" suggestions.

    For some reason, the Krita result snippet is displayed in Chinese.

    Here on the "Krita" query, which is a more normal and classic query, the results are less relevant and the sitelinks disappear. Some Chinese results also reappear here.

    When using the "International" region, I expect the results to be in English, just not tied to a specific country.

      I was not able to reproduce it, can you upload a screenshot.

      • There is the region results come from
      • There is the interface language
      • There is the language results are in

      All three can be different. Sometimes the user wants resuts in other languages, especially when those are the only results avaialble.

        Here's a screenshot

        My region is Finland.
