Was going to comment the same thing. Lately, if I, say, search for four words, the top result will only contain one of those four words. Almost feels like being back in 1996.
"Dear Google AI. Why do you think I wrote that word into my query? Best Regards, Beefield."
(Second one is that there is no way to make specific queries to return results only in a certain language (and even adding words in a specific language does not help because it tries to translate them), but you need to change the settings for the whole google search)
It's a little hidden away but advanced search can do this.
For example: https://www.google.com/search?as_q=猫&lr=lang_en
