Are you using a VPN by any chance? I'm guessing not, but that might explain why the PayPal page you're seeing is in a different language. What language is the PayPal page in?

Also, are you logged into PayPal when this happens, or are you making the payment as a guest? (From what you wrote above, it sounds like the latter.)

I'll alert Elad to this and see if he can figure it out. (FWIW, I don't think this is anything nefarious -- it's more likely to be a random PayPal quirk.)
