Multilingual Search
===================
Searx does not support true multilingual search.
You have to use the language prefix in your search query when searching in a different language.
But there is a workaround:
By adding a new search engine with a different language, Searx will search in your default and other language.
Example configuration in settings.yml for a German and English speaker:
.. code-block:: yaml
search:
language : "de"
...
engines:
- name : google english
engine : google
language : english
...
When searching, the default google engine will return German results and "google english" will return English results.
