If you click on "Search tools", just below the search bar of
google, a
dropdown menu appears where you can choose to display only pages in
your
language.
Here's an odd thing: it seems that Google displays differently to
different
users.
In my case Google offers me three (drop down menu) Search Tools:
- Anytime (the dropdown offers choices of time frame)
- All results (the dropdown menu offers: 'all results', 'reading
level',
'verbatim')
- Location (the city I live in)
So in my case , visiting Google using Firefox, the search tools do
not offer
language selection.
But I understand from you that you *do* get a language selection
option.
(Of course, there are also the Google preferences, where you can set
things
like 'Safe search filters' and 'results per page' and so on. I those
preferences there is a language selection option and I have set
Google to
serve me pages in english only. (Now, as far as I know Google doesn't
enforce that preference rigidly. If I type in a non-english word I
also get
search results in the language that that word is from. My impression
is that
the Google engineers choose to cast a wide net.))
You should be able to set the language here:
http://www.google.com/advanced_search
Unfortunately, there's no language: operator to use directly in the
main search.
It's because of the automatic language selection.
An URL without extension will serve a different page depending on
the
language settings of the user browser: name.it.html if italian,
name.html
if english and so on.
That is new to me. I consider myself to be a heavy internet browsing
user, a
heavy Google user; I have not come across this before.
Can you possibly direct me to more information about this?
I don't know the details of how it works.
I think that you should google "language negotiation apache" :-)
