This has happened to me many times as well. Here is the fix:

On the Google main page scroll down to settings and click the link
The first choice should be "Display Google tips and messages in:"
Click to enter the language choice and choose English.

Problem solved.

I would often get Google in Dutch(?) when using OperaMini.
That's an eay one to understnd though since Google will pick up the location by IP and set the language accordingly. Since OperaMini runs through a proxy the language ws set to it's IP.
