How does searching websites in other languages work?
When you perform a search, Google technology: 1. Translates your query from the language selected in the “My language” dropdown to the language selected in the “Search pages written in” dropdown. 2. Performs a search using the translated query. 3. Translates the search results back into the language in the “My Language” dropdown. When you click on a translated result (a result in the left column), you’ll be taken to an automatically translated version of the page.
