This is precisely why Google only indexes webpages written in English and are focused on the American market.

When I do a search in English, Google absolutely returns mostly web pages written in English. And, yes, it would be very annoying to the point of being useless if it did otherwise. Presumably if you query it in French, I assume it returns mostly French pages.
