  1.  IF the link is to Google Documents / Drive the links Title and description takes language from Hosting Server Location
    In EUROPE AZURE hosts are located in Holland .nl  so everything is in DEUCH
    If server is hosted / located in England. everything is in ENGLISH
    if Server is hosted / located in Denmark everything is in Danish.

    This is for my users very confusing the site is in Swedish - or Danish - even Icelandic - Finish or Norwegian
    They think there is somthing totally wrong when they link to Google Drive documents from AZURE SERVER 
    Why not set TITLE and Description in the USER language instead of Azure hosted server

    Could I maybe create a javascript to replace  the text strings with something the Scandinavians can understand ?

Different Titles description depending on host

Sorry, but can you give a more elaborate on what you are trying to do?
Is this something you are posting to the Journal?

this is an active community,  They share documents on Google Drive
So In the journa. someone. adds a link to a Google Drive Document. 
And 
URL is in TEXT
Then below Image - Title - Description. 
Since this site is hosted on AZURE  and  AZURE seems to be in HOLLAND
Google gets the Request from Server in Holland and serves TITLE and Description in Dutch.

Ok, I don't think there is a simple fix for that.
Would an option for the journal to switch off these previews help?

You can suggest this as an improvement on GitHub if you want.

If any of the volunteers decides to spend time on working on the issue(s) you logged, the fix could get incorporated in a future version of DNN, but there is no guarantee.

As an alternative you can do a pull request yourself, or even pay someone to do this for you, if the change is important to you. In that case it is always wise to first have a conversation about the proposed changes on GitHub. This can improve the chance that the fix will be accepted.
