What does hs mean? Numerous web searches do not clarify

I had the same problem searching but finally found a wiki article about the ixus models. Here is a snippet that explains all:In 2010 Canon dropped the prefix "Digital" as well as suffix "IS" (Image Stabilization) from the names of the new models e.g. IXUS 105.6 A similar change was applied to the IXY-series names used in the Japanese market.7 The United States market naming was simplified in 2011: "Digital" and "IS" were removed as well as "SD" prefix.8 Newer US and European model carry "HS" suffix, that stands for "high sensitivity".

Why is the description in French?

probably because that was the country that this particular product should have arrived. For any number of reasons it ended up with you. Canon publish handbooks etc on their web pages

Does thecanon ixus 285 camera come with a battery and a memory card (size?) or do they have to be bought separately?

Has a battery and charger but no memory card.
