Firefox Android Browser keeps setting webpages to Spanish

more options

Over and over I keep having to set my webpages back to English. Every time I close Firefox and open a go to use it again, my search results keep getting set to Spanish. I click the button to set it to English and it's fine again until I clear data. Same with when I go directly to pages, it's defaulting to them in Spanish. I have made sure both in my phone settings and Firefox settings that I'm set to English (us) but this keeps happening. This just started maybe a month ago. If I type Google.com it takes me to Google.com in Spanish. same with yahoo as another example. I searched for Mozilla android forum and it took me to the Mozilla page in spanish as well and I had to change the es to en in the address bar.
