On the `preference page`_ Bing offers a lot of languages an regions (see section
-'Search results languages' and 'Country/region'). However, the abundant choice
-does not correspond to reality, where Bing has a full-text indexer only for a

+LANGUAGE and COUNTRY/REGION). The Language is the language of the UI, we need
+in SearXNG to get the translations of data such as *"published last week"*.
-What comes a bit closer to the truth are the `search-APIs`_ but they don`t seem
-to be completely correct either (if you take a closer look you will find some
-inaccuracies there too):
+There is a description of the offical search-APIs_, unfortunately this is not
+the API we can use or that bing itself would use. You can look up some things
+in the API to get a better picture of bing, but the value specifications like
+the market codes are usually outdated or at least no longer used by bing itself.

+The market codes have been harmonized and are identical for web, video and
