How to disable Google search results in Russian language?

Question

My region is Ukraine so it is not a "mistake" that there are some relevant search results in Russian. However, can I filter out any results in Russian language anyway?

Answer 1

The easiest way is to add lr=-lang_ru parameter to the search url. E.g. in Google Chrome:

1. Go to settings->search engine->manage search engines.

2. Click "add".

3. Put any name you want.

4. Put any keyword you want.

5. Use this for "url":

   {google:baseURL}search?lr=-lang_ru&q=%s&{google:RLZ}{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}{google:assistedQueryStats}{google:searchFieldtrialParameter}{google:iOSSearchLanguage}{google:searchClient}{google:sourceId}{google:contextualSearchVersion}ie={inputEncoding}
   

6. Make your new search engine default.

Replace "lang_ru" with any language you like to exclude.

Should work pretty much the same way for other browsers. Something like

https://google.com/?lr=-lang_ru

or

https://google.com/?other_parameter=other_value&lr=-lang_ru

should work fine most of the time.
