This is completely off topic, but does anyone know of a way to get a top-tier search engine to return the best results across all languages rather than the language matching that of the search query + English, as they are wont to do?

If there is a wikipedia entry on the topic, use the interlanguage links to find the most commonly used words for that term in a foreign language.

Yes I agree this is what I do all the time and it works in most cases

IIRC Google had provided search with translated query. It was useful. Anyone know alternative?

I do a lot of research for historical things and often want results from other languages and have found on Google if you search for something and then click the settings icon and then click languages you can choose multiple results for "Currently showing search results in:" which will give you results in the languages you choose.

I typically do this in incognito windows as I do not always want for instance English and Italian results.
