Google translate is so useful.

The thread below is [WayBack] Thread by @shanselman: “Anytime I’m traveling I use Google Translate to check translations in real time on signage. You have to see it to belis real and LIVE while you move your camera. @ Paris Sorry, your browser doesn’t support embedded videos Folk […]”

Google thinks google.com is in German. How can I prevent that? +GoogleTranslate

Posted by jpluimers on 2015/08/22

This was a search for ISDN S0 bus: https://www.google.com/search?q=ISDN+S0+bus

Google thinks it is in German, but it is in English: even the html tag indicates it is in English:

<!doctype html><html itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/SearchResultsPage" lang="en"><head><meta content="/images/google_favicon_128.png" itemprop="image"><meta content="origin" id="mref" name="referrer">

I cannot change the page so nothing I can use from the suggestions in html – Why does Chrome incorrectly determine page is in a different language and offer to translate? – Stack Overflow.

Anybody knows what can I do to prevent this wrong guess?

Can anyone from +GoogleTranslate please step in?
