Safari displays website in wrong language after trip

Recently returned from a trip to Hungary. One website with an embedded Google Calendar is displaying in Magyar. Specifically, the outer frame of the calendar and the days of the week are displaying in Magyar:



However, when I right-click on the calendar and open it in a new tab or window, it displays correctly:



I have checked all my MacOS System Settings and have only English as my preferred language:



I have also checked my Google language settings, which are also set to only English:



My own Google Calendars all display correctly (in English). I tested two other browsers. The page with the embedded calendar displays correctly (in English) in both Chrome and Firefox. It is only Safari that is stuck on Magyar.


I cleared ALL the website data from Safari's Settings and quit and restarted Safari, and nothing changed.

you can choose to clear the history of significant locations or reset all location and privacy settings to their defaults

and compare your results...

Final update: I solved my own problem...


(1) I again deleted all website data in Safari Settings.

(2) In the Location module of Safari Settings I deleted all websites listed.

(3) I quit Safari and restarted my computer again.

(4) I opened Safari with the intent to get Google to ask me to allow it to find my location. I went to google.com and did a search for a local restaurant until it asked me to allow Google to use my location. I said Allow.

(5) This time when I went to the website with the embedded calendar, it now displays correctly.


I am going to clear everything again and restart and make sure it will continue to show the website calendar in English by default.
