This happens to me everyonce in a while. It's google resetting language preferences to Afrikaans (at least this is what is shown, the language displayed is not Afrikaans, I don't know if it's a language at all). You should try setting it back to english in the preferences menu (2nd item in top right corner).

  • Try switching it back to another language first, when this happened to me I could never find english in the list of languages at first.

Further to the above (I would comment if I could)... it's Cherokee. I had the same a few weeks back, as I had this junk line in my language preferences

[chrome://global/locale/intl.properties]

CHR is the ISO language code for Cherokee, and is your browser's best match. You won't find many sites that offer Cherokee, so Google is the only one serving you a Cherokee version.

At the time I think I was convinced Xmarks was the culprit. Solution, as stated above, was to delete and re-add English.
