Overview

Bring back Google’s true verbatim search

Pol’s Verbatim Search is a lightweight Chrome extension that helps you search for exact phrases, just like Google used to let you.

No translations. No suggestions. No reinterpreted results.
Just your exact words — in the language you choose.

Perfect for translators, writers, researchers, and anyone who needs precise search results.

✅ What it does:
Forces literal phrase searches using quotation marks and verbatim filters.

Lets you choose the language of the results to avoid automatic translations.

Adjusts the Google Search interface language to match your selection.

Saves your preferred language between sessions.

Free, no ads, no tracking.

This extension doesn't block ads, store any data, or modify Google’s algorithm. It simply helps you search exactly what you type — nothing more, nothing less.

🔗 Ideal for anyone tired of Google trying to “help.”

v1.0.1 – Improved accuracy and interface language behavior.

• Now forces Google interface language to English by default, to prevent automatic translation of snippets.
• Replaced donation link with Buy Me a Coffee (previously PayPal).

v1.0.2 -- Corrected donation button that was missing.

v1.0.3 -- Fixed a bug that stopped the Search button from working properly.
