Are you using English as the interface language, or the language you are searching in? That might be the difference.

Of course, I don't think Kobo make any claim to support the languages you mention. They do support Japanese, I probably thought that would flow to these languages as well.
Very good points.
The Japanese support was one of the reasons why I chose Kobo in the first place. When the interface is set to Japanese, it's a breeze to search in Japanese since the input can be either in Japanese or roman alphabet. I can't speak for languages other than English, French, Spanish and Japanese, though.
