Google almost always in German by servers in the Netherlands

Just when prompted google.com you are redirected to gogle.de I do not understand what is causing this problem. Often with Netherlands servers .

 

Suggestions?

Choose the language at the top for regional Google results.

I would add that; i never chosed a language for google. My default language is english. And sometimes when i'm over netherlands server i recive doich result.

Simply wanted to ask why. Now the problem seems solved, thanks for the reply. ^^

Problem persist. Not only on google.

i'm a duckduckgo user and have the same odd language come up from time to time.

as my browser deletes all cookies on exiting, it can't remember the settings.

that's logical and i don't see it as a big problem.

Yeah, not a big problem, just curiosity.

Try going to google.com/ncr

It disables the country specific Google pages (for example google.ca and google.de, etc)

Just use https://encrypted.google.com/. It should be in English regardless of what server your connected to.

If you are connected, let say in the Hong Kong IP Airvpn and when you go on google.com, redirect to google.com.hk with the chiness language, it's actually a good thing : It's mean google doesn't know who you are and set the engine base on your location IP.

 

Now if on the Hk IP, you are redirected to google germany, it's mean google identify you by cookie, which make the use of the VPN kind of useless since it's possible to identify you easily. On this case, deleted all history / cookie / cache, close the browser, changing IP is the solution for avoid to be track

 

Thanks for the sharing of https://www.google.com/ncr, didn't know this one

 

https://encrypted.google.com is indeed a solution, thanks for the remind

 

But before to use those links, always make check on google.com first look where it's going to redirect you (which country version of google...), if you care about your privacy.

This issue likely is due to their DNS settings since when using the UK servers I've ended up with belgium google(being redirected from google.com) so I wouldn't fret too much on it.

It 'happened today, start firefox without cookies etc. and google gives me results in German, I do not think is a cookie problem.
but as the saying EdensSpire probably  is a dns issue.
I will use just https://encrypted(dot)google(dot)com to temporarily solve the problem.
 
###update###
Fresh installation. Linux Mint Rosa.
Only to ensure that the problem is not the browser settings. The same problem is with youtube.
 
https://encrypted(dot)google(dot)com remains the best solution.
