What the title says. For instance, searching on google.com/ncr (no country redirect):

I speak none of these languages. I'm searching for the meaning of an English word, using English terms, I expect answers in English. Leaving apart questions of why are these Google search suggestions so stupid (specially considering I never click any of them, I never open pages in these languages and I know Google still tracks this despite my best efforts, and it also knows I'm nowhere near India or Pakistan etc, but still it won't learn), what can I do to block these, apart from blocking search suggestions entirely by means of an ad blocker?

I've seen a very similar, almost duplicate question (Remove Google Search suggestions) but that one asks about Chrome's omnibox and is also open to other languages that the OP is familiar with. I'm personally not interested in any language other than the one I'm using to write the search query in.

| Hindi       | ~ 528.50 million |
| Kannada     | ~  43.70 million |
| Kashmiri    | ~   6.80 million |
| Konkani     | ~   2.25 million |
| Maithili    | ~  13.60 million |

| Marathi     | ~  83.10 million |
| Nepali      | ~   2.90 million |
| Odia        | ~  37.50 million |
