I assume you installed one of the English versions of Firefox.

If you don't find a setting/options for this in Google Calendar, it may be stored in one of your google.com cookies. You can remove your google.com cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these. While viewing a page on the site:

  • right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
  • Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"

Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
