My phone has suddenly started using a foreign language on lots of sites. It IS set for English, but often is changing normal websites to display in a foreign language

Hi

Do you have an example of one if those sites?

In the Firefox for Android settings, what language is Firefox set to use?

I kept getting told to check my phone settings to be sure they were set for English, which of course, they were. No one had mentioned that there was also a language setting in Firefox ... which wasn't east to find since all the directions on the Firefox settings page were in Polish or some such. Anyway finally found a line that said ENGLISH. EUREKA. THANK YOU.
