Google Definitions In Dutch?

Threadwatch reported that a search on [what is executive search] in Google brings up a Google web definition result in Dutch. The question is why does a question asked in English, bring up an answer in a different language? The answer is because that is the only definition available in Google's index for that specific question. Still, is it more relevant to show an answer in a different language or not to show the answer at all?
