Why Do Results Using Google On My Mobile Phone Keep Appearing In Zulu?

Many times when I use Google on my phone the answers come in Zulu. I recognise the language as I have been to South Africa many times - but not in the last two years, and not with this phone.

It does not occur every time but at least fifty percent of results appear in Zulu.

As I stated, I have never used this phone in South Africa and when there used a local SIM.
I did use wifi there but again, this was on another phone so I can see no connection

I am not using a VPN, Barry

I did log into my Google account this morning on my PC to try and download the mySky app. This also appeared on my PC mainly, but not entirely, in Zulu!

I have never had this problem on my PC before - only on my phone.

Something connected to your Google account, then, how strange

Thanks Barry. But it is not in Zulu everytime and it is not always the entire page, so I will not try changing the language settings.

Perhaps I will try and learn Zulu instead :)
