    I do live in Spain and speak English too and it mixes English and Spanish. I have it set for both interface and results in English.

    It is most egregious when looking for video games and products as their names appear in Spanish websites.

    Google front page(mobile version) with the interface in English and detecting Spain as region

    Google results page, English interface, for HP EliteBook, the two first results are from HP and Amazon, the results are in Spanish

    The results scrolled down, more results in Spanish, the “People also ask” only shows queries in Spanish

    Google search page for “rj45 cable UTP or STP”, the interface is in English and the first result is in Spanish

    Google result page for the video game “Voice of Cards” showing part of the “people also ask” section in English, the results show a mixture of English and Spanish results, including 3 video results which two of them are in Spanish

    Adding the word “review” doesn’t always filter out the Spanish pages as it is adopted in tech websites. Google result page for the search “voice of cards review”, three results shown, one of them in Spanish

    EDIT: Typos
