Don't localize the widget automatically about recaptcha

[sasureshkumar]

Thank you @vdharshan . It is really very inconvenient and can not move further for sign up process where reCaptcha is used.

I signed up for an account JUST so I could agree with this. I moved to Sri Lanka recently, I do not read Sinhala (though I'm learning) and google translate doesn't work on reCaptcha so when I get asked to identify something, I have no idea what it wants me to do. Please please PLEASE fix this, it's so frustrating to have to keep dealing with.

I don't understand the issue guys, you can provide the language you want the widget to have if you don't want it to autodetect.

<script src="//www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js?onload=onloadCallback&render=explicit&hl=LANGUAGE_HERE" async defer></script>

I use it on my company website like this as well, the website is in 3 languages available and if the user changes the website language the widget changes too this way.

I don't own or have any power to change the website in question since I'm complaining about reCaptchas on other websites, like Tumblr.

I'm saying that as a USER, it's really annoying to go to various websites and have Captchas pop up in the local language because of auto-detection of the country. Making it match the browser language settings would be a lot more convenient.

[wouterds]

Oh, if it's not using the browser language but detecting it based on your geographical location of your isp that would fucked up indeed.

[Arkonsel]

Yep. Now you see my problem.

Also like the original poster said, there are three main languages in Sri Lanka. While everyone speaks English and can handle English instructions, the Tamils are unlikely to speak Sinhala so they'd be just as confused as I am.

Closing super old issues. Please re-raise if still relevant.
