Where's Waldo? Query-language Preference under Cross-lingual Knowledge Disparities

Prior work has shown that they often exhibit query-language preference -- the tendency to favor sources written in the language of the query -- but has largely examined this behavior in settings where equivalent knowledge is available across languages.
