+Example: Multilingual Search
+----------------------------
+
+SearXNG does not support true multilingual search.  You have to use the language
+prefix in your search query when searching in a different language.
+
+But there is a workaround: By adding a new search engine with a different
+language, SearXNG will search in your default and other language.
