Because search in different languages needs to be aware of that language's peculiarities.

Including but not limited to things that English doesn't have or only has in vestigial forms like grammatical cases, complex word morphology, declensions etc.

For example, it took Google years before they properly implemented search in Russian. That allowed Russian Yandex to win Russian market.
