When I try to use Firefox for Android on my Pixel cell, most prompts and other text show up in Bangla instead of English. I don't speak Bangla, and only found out what it was when, at the Google Play store, I found a "translate" prompt. When I clicked on it, the reply came, "Sorry, we don't support Bangla yet." I was then directed to "choose another source language." Yet when I clicked on the dropdown, four results were listed, all of them similar-looking Asian words that meant nothing to me. In effect, I am left without access to my browser, except by luck if I happen to guess right about how to get to where I want to go. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Just to be clear, my problem is a glitch. All of my language settings are properly set to English, which is exactly what I need, as I am only fluent in English. Yet somehow, most text (including prompts!) on my Android phone now appear in Bangla, which I don't speak at all.
