Hello, See this:

It isn't Firefox doing this, but the website servers.
A lot of servers on websites detect your current location via a reverse DNS look up of the IP and present you with pages in the local language.

There is usually a button to change the language and such a choice is stored in a cookie.
So you need to keep such a cookie via an allow exception.
