Why does Google think I speak German?

OK, I live in Switzerland and they speak a German dialect locally, but I only speak English fluently. How do I get Google to stop continually (including gmail) insist German is my preferred language?

    I also lived in Switzerland for a while. Unfortunately, I encountered the same problem. With google.ch it was ok because you can click the "English" option. But with Blogger and Gmail, it was German (though I was in French speaking Switzerland). I recommend setting your browser to www.google.com, or learning what button is what :-)

    I'd set your homepage to something like "en.google.com" or "google.co.en" If the problem persists, then I don't know what to say...
